[tor-project] UX team August summary

[Linda Naeun Lee]

Hi all,

Qe finalized the design and copy of Tor launcher (#23261
<https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23261>).  You can see the
final version, version 8, mocked up here <https://marvelapp.com/3f6102d>.
Mark built a working prototype of this new design, and we're getting ready
to push changes. I'm personally very excited for this new version of Tor
launcher. It's more clear on what options to choose, shows all the network
settings on one screen, and communicates more succinctly.

We finished three iterations of the Onion Browser branding survey, which
aims to quantify how likely they will pick Onion Browser from an app store
of browsers that claim to be affiliated with Tor, and what they would find
more helpful in signaling the recommendation for Onion Browser and Tor. The
next steps are to host the survey ourselves (so we don't rely on a third
party collecting user information), and run the survey! We hypothesize that
the takeaway will be "okay, no one knows Onion Browser was the recommended
one," but are interested in verification, quantification, and use thought
processes.

We've settled into a rhythm of triaging tickets and getting new tasks to do
each week, and using our weekly team meeting to talk about one of our big
projects with other teams' members. Now that we're doing this, we feel like
we can better be that internal service to other teams at Tor. Not to
mention that it feels more productive.

Cheers,

  Linda N. Lee
