the pod I'm on diasp.org offers the optipn to connect over i2p http://diasporg.i2p and over Tor hidden service http://diasporg5tj4xz5mxkd5qnrppo7tbb6ynk2gtmjw5lmz6mtbesj3k6id.onion
I tried adjusting the proxy to correct local host and port and setting my pod address to corresponding with no.successful connection
