 Replying to [comment:11 teor]:

 > I'm not sure what you mean here, surely there can only be one "first"
 bridge each time Tor Browser launches.

 If you take a look at `bridge_prefs.js` file, the first obfs4 bridge
 starts with:

 {{{
 pref("extensions.torlauncher.default_bridge.obfs4.1", "obfs4...
 }}}
 and the second one with

 {{{
 pref("extensions.torlauncher.default_bridge.obfs4.2", "obfs4...
 }}}
 What happens if they all are `obfs4.1`? Does Tor Browser try to connect to
 all of them at once?
