sajolida,

"elapsed time" would be calendar/real time.

An example. Assume that the Tails donation prompt is designed to appear every 3 Tor Browser starts or every 5 calendar days, which ever is GREATER.

Bob boots Tails/ starts Tor Browser several times a day. He reaches 3 Tor Browser starts every day, but the donation prompt appears only every 5th day because that interval is greater. Bob does not suffer donation prompt fatigue.

Alice boots Tails/ starts Tor Browser 3 or 4 of times a week. She sees the donation prompt once every 5 or 6 days. Alice does not suffer donation prompt fatigue.

Bob starts Tor Browser far more often than Alice does, but the two users see the Tails donation prompt almost as often.

Depending on need and circumstances, the Tails project can adjust these two intervals to selectively "target" frequent users versus occasional users.

regards,
alienpup
