Why RFP uses 32bit version useragent for http UA header?
How about adding " Win64; x64;" ?

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0
↓
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Mozilla could add that. There is some other inconsistency, too. Usually this is based on the popularity of a platform, so maybe Windows 10 (32-bit) is more popular than 64-bit.

In at least the latest stable release, no .onion alternative is offered in the address bar for the Tor Blog. I'm not even sure how to file a bug report because Tor Track is apparently being discontinued, and GitLab requires an account and is not allowing signup.

Well i installed Tor and mine is still crashing after installing the latest version i am still experiencing Crash TAB. I tried disabling Javascript nothing is working. I am kinda felling frustrated as no topic on this subject. I will appreciate a little guide to resolve this problem.

Can you provide any context or information about your computer? Is your computer running Windows or macOS X or Linux? Does Firefox work without any crashing? Do you receive any informative error messages?
