Hi everyone!

My name is Shreya. I'm a graphic designer from Indore, India. I've been learning UX and some front-end development on my own and now I'm looking for an internship to get real-world knowledge. When I found out Tor is offering an internship, I was really excited because I personally love Tor browser and support its cause.

I've looked at the project details on the Outreachy website and I'm still trying to get used to the IRC environment. I've noticed that all the first-contribution labeled issues are taken. I've already requested to be assigned a community issue. If you have any other contribution recommendations for me please let me know.

Thanks and regards,
Shreya Badchariya

Hey Tor Community Team!

I am Swastika, many of you might already know about me as I have introduced
myself on the UX team list too and the routinely design meet, I'm an
outreachy aspirant, UX designer, deeply interested in HCI. Currently, I'm a
Chemical engineering sophomore at IIT Roorkee but my interests are in
Design. I started my design journey as a graphic designer then learnt about
UI and UX parts of design and finally found my interest.
I will be contributing to open source for the first time.

Unfortunately, my outreachy website has some bugs, it has not been updated
yet. It is still showing me to fill the initial application, but I got my
initial application confirmation mail confirming my contribution period.
Hence I am unable to access the details of the project from the site. I
have sent my issue to the organizers, but have not received anything from
them yet. This might delay my contribution and create a huge loss. Could
you please let me know the links and where to start on the project?

I am really reallyy excited to work with the team and contribute my best to
it. I'm open to all sorts of help and contributions.

Thank You in advance!
Warm Regards,
Swastika

Hello,
I'm Astha and am an outreachy applicant. Not only do I find the motivation
behind the Tor Project extremely admirable but I also think that working
with y'all will be immensely fun.
I read the contribution guide and steps so I was wondering if I could have
this clear: Should I go on my own to identify the UX pain points in the
browser or is there a specific place I should be starting off from?
Excited to be here! :)

Thank you,

Best regards,

Hello everyone!

My name is Anushka Jain. I'm from India. My initial application for
Outreachy has been accepted, and I'm excited to work with the Tor project.

Currently, I'm a sophomore at the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee.

I'm a self-taught UI/UX designer.
I'm new to open source and recently got to know about Outreachy via a
friend who was a 2020 Outreachy intern in design.

I'm interested in contributing to Tor because I support its core cause -
the human right to privacy.

As there is just one internship listed on the outreach website, I wanted to
know the scope of User research and experience in this internship, as I
love solving problems with the help of design.

I wish to know the best way to start contributing to the project.

Eagerly waiting for your reply.

Thank you
Regards

Anushka Jain
Outreachy applicant
