This is stupid. You’re still “connecting directly” to the instance. Your concern is about logging and traffic from your ISP being logged. This is the dumbest way to achieve this though, and reads as overly paranoid.
Just because you’re hanging one side out on Tor, does not mean your traffic isn’t logged. I don’t want to devolve into basic network operations, but this is stupid.
Plus, just connecting to Tor is very much a huge exposure imho. I’d use a VPN. Now, if I’m having a VPN, probably wireguard, why would I need Tor? Some providers grant you the ability to interconnect devices under your account. So, just run the VPN on the server. This is why I love NordLynx. It’s just like tailscale.
using Tor is enough meta data if you were to use it to safeguard from some actors (e.g. state). I’m just saying from the perspective of some of the hypothetical personas as defined by Tor project itself. If it were to boil this down to me, I would rather live without the correlation attacks (e.g. ISP giving me seemingly random disconnects) and just do my casual reading on cracking on the clear-net.
This is not a guide to hide from the government or ISP. Just a way to tunnel to your home server without publishing the sshd for random strangers. Personally, I’d just publish the ssh and be done with it.

The more people using Tor, the less useful targeted disconnects become.

Exposure of what, to whom?
