Buy XMR directly or convert from Bitcoin? : Monero | Torhoo darknet markets

Hello, in the FAQ it answers this question with " Buying Monero directly should always be preferred."
However in the bible at Cryptocurrencies -> Monero -> How to buy Monero it says: "Purchasing Monero directly is currently NOT recommended."

So which is the more recent, safest way?
Also, if i buy Monero or Bitcoin (to exchange it later to Monero), if i buy that at an KYC exchange, should i do that in a normal browser like Firefox? Then send to a converter like xchange which i will open in tor? What is the best way?

Thanks guys. I will await a few more opinions. Maybe some admin could even clarify? Which is the current suggestion... Buy monero directly from Tor or buy BTC / LTC in an unsafe Browser and convert it?

BTC is fucking slow. I prefer LTC much faster and cheaper. Yes use a normal browser with KYC there is not point in using Tor they know who you are because of the KYC.

Thank you, could you recommend me an exchange to buy bitcoin or can i just use any of the trusted ones?
For the process later (want to exchange BTC -> XMR): Is: // Exchange (to buy bitcoin) -> Electrum Wallet -> Infinity Exchanger (BTC to XMR) -> Feather Wallet -> Market // a good or at least "okay" way to do it?

BTC and LTC at least on american exchanges are found on almost all KYC exchanges I have used. If BTC only cashapp has bitcoin for sale and Paypal has a few including BTC and LTC. Kraken has monero and all the other cryptos too. I route my LTC to a wallet on Tails connected through Tor so it is not my IP address on the coins when I trade for monero on another exchange. Your method seems good enough just do not send directly to a market from KYC exchange.
