The workaround is to remove the clearnet search engine manually and then add the .onion version.
This is important not only because adding the .onion version avoids clearnet connections but also because when enabling redirects from clearnet to .onion POST requests are lost, so searx is not only less private but practically useless as it redirects to the .onion with the search parameters lost.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/web/tpo/-/issues/192Replace word in about/history2021-06-08T17:28:09ZGusReplace word in about/history_"The network needed to be operated by entities with diverse interests and trust assumptions, and the software needed to be free and open to maximize

We already have an entry in the Support portal, but we could add a screenshot pointing the borders. [Tails have a screenshot](https://tails.boum.org/doc/anonymous_internet/Tor_Browser/index.en.html#letterboxing), but we cannot use that image because their Tor Browser is different from ours.
Task:
1. Take a screenshot of Tor Browser
2. Edit and show letterboxing feature, for example, like Tails screenshot. Save it as `letterboxing.jpg`.
3. Fork `support` repository.
4. Add `letterboxing.jpg` to assets/static/images and change this entry: http://rzuwtpc4wb3xdzrj3yeajsvm3fkq4vbeubm2tdxaqruzzzgs5dwemlad.onion/tbb/maximized-torbrowser-window/

* mail may be send with unencrypted transport (containing sensitive log information)
* difficult to update list of recipients
* no easy place to see history of alerts
* if the mail server is down, you get no alerts
Some effort has recently been made to start using Matrix inside Tor, and this seems like an oppportunity to move with that momentum and solve some or all of the above issues.
The webhook receiver used in the other project I mentioned is: https://github.com/jaywink/matrix-alertmanager.
If desirable, I could write an Ansible role to run this as a systemd user service on a TPA machine as we have done for Metrics services in the past, or you could write some Puppet to do the same.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/web/lego/-/issues/23[UX] text alignment for the header bar2022-05-11T20:38:26Zriyajawandhiya[UX] text alignment for the header bar**What is the user problem?**

When considering the text alignment for the header bar. Headers are often referred to as «Site Menus» and positioned as a key element of navigation in the website layout. Proper alignment in the designs will make them visually more appealing and will also make it easier for users to scan over a page.

**Why is this important?**
Before downloading the application, people tend to visit the website to understand why they should prefer the new application, rather than their existing ones.
**Why does this satisfy?**
1. Looks uniform
2. Clean and self-explanatory
**Why will the community benefit from it?**
1. The user will feel comfortable and creates Connectivity

**What needs to be done?**
naturally positions elements against a margin that matches up with their outer edges. I have drawn the differences.
- Red - Vertical alignment of the text - justified text to be used
- Yellow - Center-line acting as the pivot - every gap must be equidistant
- Blue - Horizontal alignment of the image - place image at equidistant locationhttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/web/community/-/issues/194[Relays] Update ticket number and link2021-04-07T14:03:08ZGus[Relays] Update ticket number and link> Note: This page is currently being revamped.
