--------------------+--------------------------------------
 I was able to comment on Disqus using Tor until 2 days ago. My tor would
 not connect, so I upgraded to the alpha Tor, which connected, but could
 not comment. I tried going back, but my previous TorBrowser 8.5 could no
 longer comment. I was told to delete the TorBrower and download a new copy
 (which I did) but lots was left over. The last comment was if I could not
 delete the old version, start a new ticket.

 On the Macintosh, a lot is stored in the user's Library. Under Application
 Support is a TorBrowser file with lots in it. A new copy of Tor has all
 the old bookmarks and preferences. New copies could not comment on Disqus,
 because the login tab could not communicate with the comment tab, so one
 could log in once (takes a long time because of the Captcha that does not
 like Tor, but one can eventually get through), then the log in tab closes
 and you're back at the comment tab that thinks you are not logged in.
 Clicking login again causes the screen to flicker as it checks the login
 page and finds you're logged in, but you're back at the comment page
 unable to comment.

 I went back from TorBrowser 8.5 to 7.5, and I can comment. I then tried
 TorBrower 8.0 with all that was left in the Library, and could not
 comment, but I did get some interesting error messages (attached)
