Comment (by arma):

 Replying to [ticket:30870 phw]:
 > but in the short run we should make sure that these bridges are kept in
 sync with our default bridges

 Btw, the original idea here was that Orbot intentionally shipped with a
 different list of default bridges than Tor Browser, because then whichever
 one attracted more censor attention wouldn't automatically undermine the
 other.

 Though if Orbot isn't maintaining its chosen bridges, that original idea
 isn't so smart anymore. :)
