AFAIK raspbian bullseye has 0.4.5.10, are you sure you are using the latest version of raspbian? > 2.) Some of my bridges have (and some do not have) /var/lib/tor/stats > folders.

The stats folder is being generated automatically, if you don't have it I assume your bridge is not being used. It might be because bridgedb does reserve some bridges and don't distribute them. The stats are multiple of 8 for privacy purposes, tor collects the information of how many users use each relay but rounds them to 8 to don't leak exact information. Those stats can be viewed searching for a relay in: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#search > 3.) Does Tor project state somewhere in it's docs that it's a terrible idea > to give a bridge a nickname such as 'TorCuba'? It should!! Why do you think is a terrible idea? -- meskio | https://meskio.net/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- My contact info: https://meskio.net/crypto.txt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Nos vamos a Croatan.
