Hi, the signaling channel used by Conjure seems to be broken in the same way Snowflake and Moat are. The bridge line used by Conjure should contain front=cdn.sstatic.net. You can replace that by front=foursquare.com or front=github.githubassets.com, keeping the rest unchanged, and it should hopefully start working again.

See also this thread for Snowflake:

Problems with Snowflake since 2023-09-20: "broker failure Unexpected error, no answer."

Some users are having problems connecting with Snowflake since yesterday, 2023-09-20. The anti-censorship and applications teams know the cause of the problem and are working on fixing it. In the meantime, if you are an affected Snowflake user, you may be able to work around the problem using a custom bridge line. The symptom of the problem is that Tor doesn’t make progress in bootstrapping. If you look at the Tor log, you will see messages like this: [notice] Managed proxy "./client": offer c…

And this one for Moat:

Temporary fix for moat and connection assist

Tor Browser’s connections to bridge distribution and circumvention settings services are temporarily not working for some users. This will be fixed in the next release, but some users will need to follow these steps in order to configure a working Tor connection to receive the update. The reasons for this problem are the same as those discussed in the previous forum post about Snowflake: Problems with Snowflake since 2023-09-20: "broker failure Unexpected error, no answer." Until the fix is de…

Ok I used the GitHub address and we connected

I am having a similar issue on snowflake on my iPhone

I don’t have an iPhone to verify, but assuming it’s similar to Android. You can either choose the Snowflake variant that use AMP instead of Fastly if that’s a thing, or select “custom bridge” and use one of the bridge lines in the thread I linked above.

I used the two bridge addresses that you sent me But it didn’t work

[trinity-1686a]

it seems it’s still trying to connect to cdn.sstatic.net for some reason. Have you tried stopping the app and relaunching it?

So here is what I learnt

In android
Tor alpha
I used the GitHub link and it started to work

On ios
Only direct connection works
The others including all the bridges etc do not work
So I chose custom bridges and used the conjure bridge and it was super fast . It keeps switching up addresses

The tor log says giving up, but it is connected
I don’t understand that and when will they fix the snowflake errors any idea ?

[deex5]

Using a custom bridge to connect

conjure 143.110.214.222:80 url=https://registration.refraction.network.global.prod.fastly.net/api front=github.githubassets.com

[deex5]

Still connected.
