I've been experimenting with a private tor setup - I've managed to setup a
couple directory authorities, six routers/exit nodes (which seemed to be
the minimum to bootstrap everything), and a client. Its a pretty normal
setup (aside from everything running on my development box) and passes
traffic
The latest meek user graph shows two recent large increases. The first
increase from 2000 to 3000 is around April 9. The second from 3000 to
5000 is all on April 15. The first increase makes sense; it corresponds
with the removal of a bottleneck on meek-azure:

Whether it's public/fast/direct or hidden, they are both Must-Tor
services. You can't get away from that basic requirement.
Tor Services, being either Fast/Direct/Public or Hidden/Onion, could be
the generic term for either. It would get away from any possibility of
what OS is - Onion Service vs.

Following on Aaron's suggestion, and further pushing my own wee agenda,
what about PS? it works because even if someone confused the acronym for
something else, it still works. And it matches well with HS/OS.
