I got Orbot working for the Zeus LN wallet (connected to my home lnd/raspiblitz).

But ugh, it was very nasty to get Orbot to do anything (in previous attempts it has always largely falied, now I can *just* get it to transfer a few kB at a time and make a LN payment). Any tips on exactly how to configure Orbot so it isn't like 1% as fast as Tor normally is?

@waxwing Is it consistently slow? You could have just been unlucky with a slow guard node.

@pete i mean, i can report back. i found i only got it working at all by enabling "bridges", and the default of 4 options inside that. There was some captcha for enabling other bridges but it didn't accept the right answer, lol.

I mean i suppose it *is* a thing that mobile data sometimes/often blocks Tor? Let me try with wifi.

@waxwing Maybe! But it's pretty common for guard nodes to be slow. So I wouldn't assume that was the issue.
