Dear team, thank you for your great work. We are a tech NGO from Germany and startet a little campaign here to encourage users to run a snowflake to help circumvent cencorship (e.g. Iran, Russia): https://snowflake.fiff.de/index_en.html Now we get a lot of questions about how many ppl actually do run snowflakes, but on https://metrics.torproject.org we couldn't find any data on snowflake. Could this data be make available or are there reasons for hiding it? Thanks so much Rainer -- Forum InformatikerInnen für Frieden und gesellschaftliche Verantwortung e. V.

Middle Relays.

Good Day, I have run a middle Tor relay for many years. I wish that the Tor Project would stop publishing the IP addresses of middle relays. Such will make the Tor Network more secure; plus, my home IP address is being blacklisted as being a VPN, proxy, malicious, etc. Thank you, Dawn

When will Relay Search show more than 2, 000 bridges?
by Victor Leser 09 Jan '23

09 Jan '23

Hello. When I do a Tor Metrics Advanced Search for all running bridges, (type:bridge running:true), I see the following comment above the results. __________----------________---------- Relay Search type:bridge running:true Too many matches! The current version of Relay Search does not support a result set greater than 2000 and only displays the first 2000 hits. This is due to some performance issues in rendering large results sets in JavaScript. Future versions will hopefully manage to overcome this issue. _______---------________-------- I believe that it is possible that some bridges may be shown as not working by Relay Search because of the 2,000 bridge limit to the report on working bridges, rather than the bridge being faulty. Can you please tell me when a version which is not limited to 2,000 hits will be available? Given the large increase in the number of bridges since 2021, I presume that work on this new version may have started, and would like to know when it will be completed. I have searched for an answer online but not found anything. I may not be looking in the right place, so I thought that I should ask you the question as suggested in the section on "Contact".
