Maintenance of our server

Hi there,

Our hosting provider DigitalOceans networking team will be upgrading edge networking equipment to improve performance and reliability, where our service is located.

There is a little impact by this maintenance, which may be a few minutes of increased latency as well as small amounts of packet loss while they shift traffic to redundant devices. They will endeavor to keep this to a minimum for the duration of the change.
