New download page does not provide signature links

Hello, The new download page [1] does not provide links to the signature files needed to check that the provided tor browser bundles have indeed been produced and/or approved by the tor browser team. Such signatures are important for software in general, but it is especially worrying when they are lacking from an inherently privacy and security focused project like tor. In the end, I managed to find the signature file by appending `.asc` to the bundle URL, but others might not think of doing that, and besides, I feel like we should promote security best practices by encouraging people to check the signature. While I'm at it, thank you all for your contributions to this critical piece of FOSS software. [1] https://www.torproject.org/download/ -- mwnx GPG: AEC9 554B 07BD F60D 75A3 AF6A 44E8 E4D4 0312 C726

Update translated strings on check.torproject.org

Can we have the translations on https://check.torproject.org/ updated? It seems i made string changes long time ago but the website still shows the old strings. So would be nice if it was automatically updated once in a while for translators to be able to test the translations for real. Same for other website with translated strings.

check.torproject.org does not used prefered language

It seems https://check.torproject.org/ does not follow the browser prefered language setting. I understand that the browser default might be set to prefer english for privacy but if the user chooses a prefered language would it not be ok for the website to use that language so the user does not have to select it in the language list? Just an idea i dont really use Tor Browser i just test it and se how well things are translated and of course if i translate the strings on the website i would like for the users to be able to see the strings.

Video closed captions only in english despite being translated on Transifex

The video closed captions on https://www.torproject.org/about/overview.html.en only have english. Should it not have other languages to? I have translated tor-misc-tor_animationsrt on Transifex. Code from website: <video ...> <source ...> <track label="English" kind="captions" src="https://www.torproject.org/videos/en.vtt" srclang="en" default> </video> https://www.torproject.org/videos/en.vtt So we are missing the other languages. Or maybe only en.vtt is when using overview.html.en.
