Release schedule update
by intrigeri 19 May '21

19 May '21

Hi, Mozilla has updated their release schedule [1] recently, and the Tor Browser release schedule [2] does not match anymore. Can I safely assume that the Tor Browser release schedule will be updated to match Mozilla's?

Recovering from Broken Tor Browser Nightly
by Matthew Finkel 13 May '21

13 May '21

Hello everyone, Today you may discover that Tor Browser Nightly does not bootstrap tor and only shows the red error page. This is due to on-going work improving the initial bootstrapping experience [0]. Unfortunately, only part of the changes were merged yesterday, and that resulted in the current broken state [1]. As described in [1], the workaround is setting the `TOR_USE_LEGACY_LAUNCHER` environment variable as `1`: `export TOR_USE_LEGACY_LAUNCHER=1` or `TOR_USE_LEGACY_LAUNCHER=1 ./tor-browser_$l/Browser/start-tor-browser` Sorry for the inconvenience. This issue should be resolved tomorrow. [0] https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/27476 [1] https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-launcher/-/issues/40009
