ooops, sorry to hear that, and thanks for reporting us!
I understand you were already using bridges with 4.19, right?

Let's see if we can understand why this happens:

- have you copied the whole (very long) bridge line? an example is  
obfs4 76.74.178.195:9443 406A8B5869B72221036291407EC3688C69995F80
cert=FY2R16JOoE2VNCU2gVLWBj6Gg+YBP7mTLU5zl12Fz9iC5TQG6SqE71CFhD3zIuJcEFrcMQ
iat-mode=0

- is Tails clock accurate? Is it more than an hour greater than UTC?  
https://time.is/UTC
  unfortunately we have this bug which might affect you if this is the  
case: https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/15548

bye!
