Hi everyone,

Tor Browser 13.5a10 has now been published for all desktop platforms. You read that right, it's a 13.5 alpha release!

This is just a test release to verify that our channel-splitting logic in the updater is working correctly before enabling it in 13.5 stable. This logic will allow users on legacy platforms (e.g. Windows 7) to split off into a legacy ESR-115 branch, while those users on updated operating systems move to the new ESR-128 branch.

NOTE: This branch will not be updated further or receiving feature updates. This is just a test <3
