I would imagine most users of Tor are using Tor Browser. I am reading there was a responsible disclosure to Mozilla but is it me or did that section leave out when the Tor Project planned to respond or release a fixed Tor Browser? Do they like keep very close or is there a large lag?

Tor Browser is always quick to rebase on the latest Firefox ESR. They released an update the next day:

This is great to hear. I wish the original article was more clear on that instead of a vague "they'll get to it" which has bad connotations.
Not sure about "most". I use tor without a tor browser, because I don't care about being identified. I only used it to go around geoblocking and visit onion sites.
Are you really not sure? I'm pretty darn sure a lot of "normal" people don't know how to configure their systems to use a SOCKS proxy to use Tor.
But a lot of "normal" people don't use tor at all.
Ah I should have been more specific and saying normal Tor users.
