We should fix both. FWIW: I think this would be a valuable thing to do during our documentation hackweek later this year in November.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/bridgedb/-/issues/31426Update BridgeDB's specification2022-03-01T17:35:40ZPhilipp Winterphw@torproject.orgUpdate BridgeDB's specificationWe have [a BridgeDB spec](https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/bridgedb-spec.txt) but it's outdated and was last modified in 2013.

We should update the specification so it reflects BridgeDB's current implementation. We should also cover Moat, our new BridgeDB metrics (legacy/trac#9316), and maybe our anti-bot mechanism (legacy/trac#31252).
We should get the spec to a point where it can provide newcomers with a comprehensive understanding of BridgeDB's overall design.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/community/l10n/-/issues/40023Update documentation for developers2024-02-14T10:15:48ZemmapeelUpdate documentation for developersMaybe it was lost along with trac, maybe it was never there...

The UX has changed a bit. Let's review and update this section about using built-in bridges with Tor Browser.
> USING PLUGGABLE TRANSPORTS
>
> To use a pluggable transport, click "Configure Connection" when starting Tor Browser for the first time. Under the "Bridges" section, locate the option "Choose from one of Tor Browser's built-in bridges" and click on "Select a Built-In Bridge" option. From the menu, select whichever pluggable transport you'd like to use.
>
> Once you've selected the pluggable transport, scroll up and click "Connect" to save your settings.
>
> Or, if you have Tor Browser running, click on "Settings" in the hamburger menu (≡) and then on "Connection" in the sidebar. Under the "Bridges" section, locate the option "Choose from one of Tor Browser's built-in bridges" and click on "Select a Built-In Bridge" option. Choose whichever pluggable transport you'd like to use from the menu. Your settings will automatically be saved once you close the tab.

I do understand that the commands are not to be taken literal, but aim to describe the general approach, however, gpg signing is a sensitive topic, and confusing enough as it is for new users, updating the instructions might help to prevent some unnecessary doubt.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/web/manual/-/issues/99Update known issues page - Tor Browser desktop and mobile2024-01-30T13:40:21ZGusUpdate known issues page - Tor Browser desktop and mobileAccording to the [blog post](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-105), here's a list of known issues that we need to update the Tor Browser Manual:

Some of the documents do not have a proper new document, maybe we should wait till we have a dev portal and reproduce them there:
- https://www.torproject.org/projects/tordnsel.html.en (maybe we should have an entry on the glossary about it?)
- https://www.torproject.org/about/torusers.html.en - isn't this a bit like our personas? or maybe we have a newer link to our users
- https://2019.www.torproject.org/about/overview.html.en / we ask people to read this page to have an idea of what tor is. do we have a better page for it? maybe our main page?
