Ok, I wrote that before actually trying to disable the default instance via
systemctl disable tor at default
This does not work. I fail to disable tor at default without disabling tor.service.
After a reboot it is back and running.
I noticed that this service is special since it says "static" instead of "enabled" or "disabled" on other services:
systemctl status tor at default
● tor at default.service - Anonymizing overlay network for TCP
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tor at default.service; static)
So there is no way to disable the default instance using systemctl after all?
