Fyi... Those needing UDP, via raw IPv6 transport [1], over
Tor Onion Services can use OnionCat to do that end-to-end.
Typical apps using UDP are bittorrent, voice/video, and more
you can list here. Also any app that can use IPv6-TCP
will work over it, countless apps support IPv6.
OnionCat gives your host an IPv6 interface into onionland.
You can literally ping6 your friends over onions :)

[1] IPv4 is possible, but just like with I2P GarliCat, and
some other p2p-vpn/net/tunnel tools, it requires some
mesh or further setup, whereas the IPv6 mode is automagic.
