Hi,

if this about Linux or Windows?

If it is about Linux...

We're using Tor Browser as default browser in Whonix (based on Debian
stable).

It should be relatively simple for any developer like-minded person to
take the tb-default-browser package [1] and use it on plain Debian (or
other Linux distributions) to get the same functionality.

All that is missing is documentation, but I unfortunately cannot support
this use case outside of Whonix to due to time constraints at this time.

All the best,
Patrick
