During the UX Sprint, several of the users found alternate download pages
other than download-easy, and became confused. If you search for Tor,
download Tor, or Tor Browser, you get one of the following links:
https://www.torproject.org/download/download
https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en
https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html
Each of these has a different flow for downloading Tor Browser, and all
but download-easy caused users to stop and become confused. I personally
think https://www.torproject.org/download/download should simply redirect
to download-easy, and the
https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en page should remove
the matrix and either behave like download-easy, or its download button
should take the user to download-easy.
We will still need some place to put installation instructions, and the
alpha downloads, but those should be broken off into different pages that
replace the outdated mess in
https://www.torproject.org/docs/documentation.html.en.
