Also I have doubts about the onion address he shared, because as far as I know the real address starts with mixorfly or something like that.
Unfortunately, I don't have tor on my mobile so I can't verify it myself.

It's correct however it's the v2 onion link and CM moved to v3 which is the chipmixorfly, see ANN: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1935098.0.
Regardless, I wouldn't dare click any links on the article as it's been established the publisher/author has malicious intent. I suspect the information where the article is based from or copied from is of long ago seeing how a lot of data is outdated. Aside from CM, another closed service is also listed - bitblender.
CryptoMixer has an outdated onion link as well
Malicious article:
ANN
The cryptomixer.io and cryptomixns23scr.onion (v2) domains are registered back in 2016 and have never changed! In July 2021, we introduced the new onion address: crypmix4m5iunofa25mpmiihdb56oaqg57tvrebqatc6otn3w65qhlid.onion (v3) as v2 addresses was deprecated.
Lastly, it's worth noting that SmartMix.io (on #2) is a scam, see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5168581.0
