I'm using tails, have a channel on freenode, but it's updated hidden
tor onion site is down.
So, are there IRC networks that allow connection through tor, if so
which ones?
Also, should/could I use Pidgin and how would that work?
Thanks in advance. Any help would be much appreciated.

fine, you need to set up SASL first though
