Arti 1.4.1 is released: Family improvements, groundwork for Conflux

by nickm | March 3, 2025

Arti is our ongoing project to create a next-generation Tor client in Rust. Now we're announcing the latest release, Arti 1.4.1.

This release has a client-side implementation for Family IDs (a.k.a. "Happy Families"), which (when used everywhere!) will save relay administrators time and bandwidth. It also starts to lay the groundwork for a full Conflux implementation, to improve performance by sending traffic over multiple paths.

For full details on what we've done, and for information about many smaller and less visible changes as well, please see the CHANGELOG.

For more information on using Arti, see our top-level README, and the documentation for the arti binary.

Thanks to everybody who's contributed to this release, including kpcyrd and Neel Chauhan.

Also, our deep thanks to all of our sponsors for funding the development of Arti!
