How are you guys paying zero attention to this critical function?
Taking away user customization cripples the fundamental principles of freedom to choose and speak freely.
Also, as Android' built in Always-on VPN can take advantage of outdated Orbot's VPN feature to tunnel everything over Tor with zero leak when user chooses Block internet without VPN option in Android network settings.
Just need a separate Tor Browser APK that can be used with good old Orbot. Or a new form of something similar that can allow users to choose.
I recently faced a major headache with Facebook's onion address. Whereby it won't allow users to upload anything. Only solution was to choose a customized IP/Node a user had used to access Facebook before. And above feature can help evade such lock downs.
I sincerely hope someone takes this seriously and does something.
Very similar report was filed 13 months before!!!

At first I thought it's just relay nodes. But just now, I was connected to a path with an Exit Node in one of them!
