#### Contributing to Tor
Tor is an amazing project.
We need to do as much as possible to help protect the integrity of this network, and to help strengthen the network.
This can be done by regularly using Tor.
Regularly using Tor helps create more traffic on the network.
Generally, more traffic will help to anonymize users.
Consider running a [Snowflake](https://snowflake.torproject.org), this can run as a browser addon or inside of a [Docker container](https://hub.docker.com/r/thetorproject/snowflake-proxy), alternatively, you can enable Snowflake inside of Orbot.
Running a Tor relay would be the best way to help contribute to the network.
Refer to [this guide](https://community.torproject.org/relay/) on how to setup a relay.
Any relay is important but, if you can, host an `exit-relay`.
These relays are extremely important to the network as they see the clearnet traffic.
If you do not want to host a relay, you can look at the [SaveTor](https://savetor.network/) project, which is taking donations in return for hosting public Tor nodes.
