Comment (by isabela):
Hi mcs and Brade. I followed these steps (after playing with the settings
for a bit using the built-in bridges (PTs). And got the following msg
when I clicked on 'connect':
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/attachment/ticket/24371/Connect_to_Tor.png
Replying to [comment:2 mcs]:
> Also, if you want something close to a "first run" experience, do the
following:
> 1. Start Tor Browser and allow bootstrapping to complete.
> 2. Open about:config.
> 3. Filter on extensions.torlauncher.prompt_at_startup and toggle that
pref so its value is "true."
> 4. Filter on extensions.torlauncher.default_bridge_type and reset that
pref so it has an empty value.
When I did step 4 above it had 'snowflake' there, so I cleaned it up
before restarting the browser and getting that msg.
I think this is a bad experience but I want to know if the experience is
like this for real or if this is a bug before opening a ticket.
The reason I think is a bad experience is that if I have some
configuration already to connect to Tor, the 'connect' button should just
use that to connect. Or is the connect button only for direct connecting
to Tor?
