💬 Tor Browser for desktop is now truly multi-locale, meaning all supported languages are included in a single bundle. You can switch display language without any additional downloads via the Language menu in General settings. 🍎 Tor Browser 12.0 now provides native support for Apple Silicon. We've opted for a Universal Binary too – meaning both x86-64 (for Intel) and ARM64 (for Apple Silicon) builds are bundled together and the correct version chosen automatically. You package ARM and x86 into a single binary? That seems awfully wasteful. How much unneeded space are you occupying on other people's hard drives?  @BeegyPsi Why complain to Apple? They're moving the world forward by moving passed x86. Good on them. If that sounds like outrage, you're probably a bit too sensitive to be online. It was a pretty mundane statement about wasting user space to accommodate ancient technology and allow the dev to be lazy. Generally I reserve outrage for a tiny bit more than drive space. That said, as far as "the nature of [me]" goes, do fuck off. 🔒 HTTPS-Only Mode is now enabled by default in Tor Browser for Android. This change will help provide the same level of protection against SSL stripping attacks by malicious exit relays that we introduced to desktop in Tor Browser 11.5. 🧅 12.0 for Android also includes the option to "prioritize .onion sites". When enabled, you will be redirected automatically to the matching .onion site for any web site that has Onion-Location configured. @torproject I have pixel 6 pro, which architecture do I choose when I download the apk from the website? It is not in f-droid. And the guardian version does not seem uptodate @Digitaluntertauchen @torproject 📖 Lastly, if you're having trouble connecting to the Tor Network, remember that you can view the Tor Browser Manual offline via "Help > Tor Browser Manual". Thank you to all of the volunteers who contributed to this release by testing and translating Tor Browser! 💜  |
