 > Which is presumably why the version number is not shown on mobile. It's
 not clear why we decided to not show all the things in `torbrowser-info`
 on mobile but sysrqb thinks that might be due to `about:tbupdate` not be
 available there. I guess we could just set `display:none;` on mobile for
 `torbrowser-changelog-link` instead?

 I think so, yes.
 Most of the hidden items were added during the #27111 work (commit
 61deb44d0c07eb1ec1d71eac2f0a7aeca87ea054). Kathy and I introduced
 #torbrowser-info during our work on #29440 (commit
 82a5f8665a6b5a7f5d4c78f0a526dfa16834ec7f).
