In ParrotOS if you install torsocks using apt-get install torsocks, it installs fine, however you cannot run it from the commandline as it has the following error
Error:
PERROR torsocks[2859]: socks5 libc connect: Connection refused (in socks5_connect() at socks5.c:202)
To fix this error do the following
Type:
sudo nano /etc/tor/torsocks.conf
Scroll down to the TorPort line
Change 9050 to 9150
Now it should read
TorPort 9150
Press CTRL + X
Press Y to save
Now you can run torsocks

While TOR is the recommended way to access the dark web, everyone and anyone can still visit without the same level of anonymity. I certainly would suggest using TOR always, however if you need to get to any .onion site from a computer without tor, you can do so by following this:
Open an internet browser (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, etc)
Type in the .onion site (ex. https://protonirockerxow.onion/rc/)
After the .onion portion of the address, add .dog (ex https://protonirockerxow.onion.dog/rc/)
Press Enter
