I believe I have encountered some flaws in the app interface but regardless my main takeaway here is that Tor is a big point of misunderstanding for me. I don't understand what information goes over Tor and what doesn't. And when it should or shouldn't. Basically I am familiar with the Tor browser, that's it.

It made sense to me to set up my home node as a Tor node since that seems more secure. But when interacting with the Bitcoin ecosystem sometimes I think that was a mistake because I run into things like this.
