Given the US recently made a bid to fast-track multiple censorship bills, KOSA included, and is also trying to kill Section 230 now, which will pose an existential threat to Fediverse instances hosted over the clearnet, how feasible would it be to host said instances over Tor/I2P?

Wouldnt that mean that users would also have to use tor? Thats not going to happen...

It might if they're censored off the clearnet.

i feel like you may not really understand how basic the average user is.

for example, most have never even been near people who know what tor is. and as the technical-info proxy for an absurd number of humans the number of people asking me how to be 'uncensored' on the internet is zero. its fucking zero.

Who cares about them? Even if it was easier to use, they still wouldn't use it because they want to be monitored.
