Comment (by cohosh):
> I'm not sure item 3, tracking where proxies are blocked, is necessarily
a priority. Round-the-clock proxy-go was never meant to be a permanent
thing, only a stopgap until we have actual organic proxies (#20813). The
idea is that eventually we don't rely on long-lived proxies running at
static IP addresses, because if we do that we're playing the bridge
distribution game, and doing it worse than BridgeDB does. IMO the browser
extension (#23888) is the priority for getting actually diverse
snowflakes.
This makes sense to me, I think we do need to do something about item 2 as
well though. I wasn't able to test the behaviour of tor browser at the VPS
but just the Tor client was having trouble quickly deciding whether or not
the proxy was being blocked. I suppose this won't be as big an issues when
we have more diverse proxies though.
