Comment (by mwolfe):

 Got the new snowflake line.

 The snowflake line didn't work until I modified it to

 ClientTransportPlugin snowflake exec PluggableTransports
 /snowflake-client -url https://snowflake-broker.azureedge.net/ -front
 ajax.aspnetcdn.com -ice stun:stun.l.google.com:19302

 That's the way the original was, no ./TorBrowser/Tor/ at the beginning.

 ***

 Tried the bridges from bridges.torproject.org, six of them (i.e., since
 one gets 3 at a time, I downloaded twice), but could not connect. The
 built-in bridges for obfs4 work fine, but the ones from the database
 didn't. The captcha is very hard for me to read. With the letters and
 numbers overlapping, it's hard for me to be sure what it's asking for, and
 it usually takes me 3 or 5 tries. Not sure why the bridges aren't working.
 I downloaded some a few months ago, and they worked, but not today.
