Tor ☛ The Future of Tor Browser Alpha | The Tor Project
With the recent release of Tor Browser 15.0, we have come out of yet another ESR-transition season whereby Tor Browser has been updated to the latest version of Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR). Historically, we have spent several months each year on this work. It is a very important and methodical process which ensures Tor Browser remains secure and private through upstream security updates from Mozilla and by testing and updating our own features and customizations. You can find a somewhat detailed overview of this process and why it is so important in our previous Tor Browser 14.0a1 release blog post.
Starting with Tor Browser 16.0a1, rather than being based on Firefox ESR 140 (as would have been the case in the past), the Tor Browser Alpha release will instead be based on the latest Firefox Rapid Release. The Tor Browser Stable release (starting with 15.0) will remain on the latest Firefox ESR Release. This change will only affect Tor Browser Alpha users.
