Hello, I am currently running Tor from the Tor Repositories on Debian Stable. Its working ok, but I was wondering if the network would benefit if I would start using Tor Alpha?
Greetings, Sebastian

relay operators that are willing to test new (unstable) builds and willing to report bugs are primarily useful for the Tor developers (see the recent call for testing of IPv6 features)
If you use ansible-relayor for relay management you can choose to use alphas or nightly builds using the variables tor_alpha or tor_nightly_builds https://github.com/nusenu/ansible-relayor
This is my opinion. With that said, I would use the stable versions of tor as they are best tested, etc. Cheers. --Keifer

OK. Thank you both for your replies. I will stay with the stable version then!
