What's special about Tor Browser Bundle? What would I need to configure to use it with another browser?

are there any researched measurements to show exactly how much is available? obviously it would vary greatly depending on where the connection is going... but wondering if there is some overarching idea of what it has..
Try using it. Very slow. No matter where you are. I understand that some people have no choice other than to use it. so I stopped using it to leave whatever bandwidth there is in the exit nodes to them
I have octoprint set up with a IP behind a NAT, and a hidden service. When I'm not at the 'space, I use Orbot on my android and OctoRemote.
I get reasonably good speeds and latency. I can also view my webcam on the printer. It's not 4HD by any means, but is definitely usable.

#83I fully get the pain of a "bothersome captcha" but as a website operator (who's sites are behind cloudflare), there is a balancing operation. How much of the traffic out of Tor is legitimate, and how much is spammers, attackers and other script kiddies? For me, the answer is "very little legitimate". A better request for Cloudflare websites would be to put the CAPTCHA's just on actions that need protection. Reading a…
Are you using Cloudflare purely as a CDN?
Can you choose to filter access to your content from geographic regions (i.e. block all IPs from [country])
What key services/offerings are you benefiting most from using Cloudflare?

I use it to control my 3d printers at our local hackerspace. I have octoprint set up with a IP behind a NAT, and a hidden service. When I'm not at the 'space, I use Orbot on my android and OctoRemote. I get reasonably good speeds and latency. I can also view my webcam on the printer.

#86All the author had to do with this "appeal" was present the text to be read. Instead they put it on gitlab behind javascript. Literally nothing renders without JS enabled, and even with it enabled in browsers more than a year or two old it's just spins forever: no text. Text is easy guys. Here's my appeal: stop hiding all content behind javascript. It's not required and because if it I am unable to read the author's…

It wouldn't be surprising if hidden services had a lot better performance. Running a guard node is a lot less risky than an exit, so there's probably a lot more capacity available for traffic staying inside the network.
I've also had quite a few projects in which I'm trying to normalize Tor usage. My biggest one thus to date is a Tor-ified IoT network that uses your own resources instead of nebulous "cloud" providers.

Long story short, there's a lot of promise to a .onion address, given it acts like a telephone number. Change IPs? Who cares. You retain your "number" no matter where you move :) It's also a lot less scary when talking to people about this, and how Tor is awesome in many areas.

#88Cloudflare is working on a new solution to this problem that allows us to differentiate between abusive visitors and legitimate users without de-anonymizing them.
If you’re a Cloudflare user and want to sign up for this feature, email onion-beta@cloudflare.com for details.

That makes a lot more sense, regarding in-Tor bandwidth. I've also had quite a few projects in which I'm trying to normalize Tor usage.
