    Are you running Bitcoin Core with listen=0?
    It should be listen=1 since OP mentioned he checked "Allow incoming connections", unless it's override by listen=0 on bitcoin.conf or parameter when opening Bitcoin Core.
    I believe that means disabling it ["=0"] and it appears that it has something to do with Tor users using it, am I right? I'm using the default settings and judging by @nc50lc's comment, it seems there's no need for me to add it.

    AFAIK it's not related with Tor usage or Tor user. But @nc50lc is right, you don't need to add listen=0.

    • CMIIW: If I continue to run it in its current state, I'm still contributing by verifying and connecting to others while other nodes just can't connect to me. Am I right?

    Correct.
