por Gwyneth Llewelyn, há 2 mesesAll right, like anything Tor-related, this requires a bit of patience to get it running properly.
If all you need is to 'fire and forget', sure, follow the instructions *exactly* and you'll get the expected result.
In my case, I've got a tweaked old macOS-based laptop (it's still x64). Because Apple has discontinued this version years ago, I have to run MacPorts to keep everything working nicely. MacPorts currently has a much more recent version of Tor than what Andy offers for download.
In my case — remember, it's Mac! — I decided to install both Tor and its configurations as written by Andy under ~/Applications/torbin
Then, inside this directory, I removed the binary and the dylib, and linked to the ones from MacPorts: that way, if those get updated (they will), there is no fear that it will break anything.
Next comes what Andy calls "the NodeJS native client". This I also put under ~/Applications/torjs — and this is the path to place on the Extension configuration.
Once all that is in place — well, it works. It's slightly more complex to set up than the built-in Tor connectivity of the Brave browser, but, on the other hand, I have a bit more control over what is being launched. It's a good compromise!

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por user2859025, há 2 anosFollowed the instructions down to a T, still doesn't establish a a connection to Tor. Completely useless add-on.
- Avaliado em 3 de 5por Usuário 15614831 do Firefox, há 2 anosCan't you just start tor.exe without all the Node.JS middleware? It's a fair bit of work to install that.
- Avaliado em 5 de 5por Neil Gager, há 3 anosFor what it's worth, if you've got the "Windscribe - Free Proxy and Ad Blocker" add-on, you need to disable it. Even when it's been turned off (but not disabled) it stops this add-on from working, for me, it did anyway.👍
- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Usuário 17314060 do Firefox, há 3 anosFollowed _exactly_the install instructions given and ended up with a full re-install of FF 0.97 to get my browser working again.
did the following:
0. installed this addon
1. Download “Tor Bundle” and extract it in a local directory (https://github.com/andy-portmen/tor-bundle/releases). Put it into ~/.tor-bundle
2. put userdir/.tor-bundle into the options page text box and saved
3. downloaded the native client from https://github.com/andy-portmen/native-client/releases and installed it into ~/.tor-client and then ran ./install.sh script
4. browser console appeared on my gui (fedora 35 + gnome 41) and started spewing massive amounts of errors:

5. onion button cannot be switched off / tabs start timing out!

- It seems to work fine and it's easy to configure.
You only need to install first this extension and then follow the instructions given by the developer:
1.-Download “Tor Bundle” and extract it in a local directory (https://github.com/andy-portmen/tor-bundle/releases).
2.-Open options page and paste the “root” of the extracted folder in the text box.
3.-Install the native client either from the extension or manually from https://github.com/andy-portmen/native-client/releases
4.-Open the toolbar panel and check Tor integration. - Avaliado em 1 de 5por Usuário 13431751 do Firefox, há 5 anos

- Avaliado em 5 de 5por MaxthonFan, há 6 anosWorks just as intended. Yes, the installation is not 'just click continue' with a nice GUI installer, but I guess the addon's target group isn't the typical BDU either.
