Five, ten days? I ran a bridge at a provider where IP addresses are easy to release and replace with new ones. Seems to take the censors in China, Iran, Pakistan, etc less than a week to find and block new bridge IPs.
I gave up in frustration. Meek is a better solution but is not something an individual can readily put into operation. China has cracked down on all GFW bypasses rather successfully, including VPN providers who have a strong financial incentive to succeed. Iran is nearly as good. I find running a relay more satisfying and would add relays instead of bridges now.
