Start plugins asynchronously This prevents other services from getting stuck behind the plugin manager while the Tor plugin is starting, which takes several seconds. The plugin manager waits for each plugin to start before stopping it. I've also added some canaries to plugins and services to ensure instances aren't started more than once. See merge request !181
Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging tools such as email, Twitter or Telegram, Briar doesn't rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users' devices. If the Internet's down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the Internet's up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.
