Tor isn't a browser, it is a network, app and protocol, the bundled browser is just one quick way to use it.
I use it with my normal Chrome browser.
brew install tor
then setup a new user in Chrome and install the proxy switchysharp extension and add 127.0.0.1 9040 socks5 as a proxy.
- A_COMPUTER 13y agoFor web browsing, the bundle is the definitive, closest-to-actually-being-secure way to do it. Tor's FAQ explicitly calls what you're doing "a really bad idea." I'm too lazy to write down all the ways it is a bad idea, but I'll just summarize it to say that you can't make Chrome always use the proxy, and it's still possible in various ways for a site to induce Chrome to give up information about you.
