Replying to [ticket:23615 gk]:
> I think we should try to get those users updated by having some
redirects, say, for the next 6 months.
If it's doable, I think we should try to support them for the long term.
The failure mode is really bad: you get no update suggestion, and you are
told that your Tor Browser is up-to-date.
Especially since some people use Tor Browser as a backup "when the
censorship happens", we should expect that reasonable people have a
version of Tor Browser from some years ago.
