Fellows! Thank you all so much again for your continued support and feedback since Fellowship released in Early Access last Thursday!

Maintenance Details:

  • Start Time: 10:00 AM CET

  • Duration: A few hours (we’ll share an exact time when ready!)

  • What’s This Maintenance Aiming to Fix?

    • This maintenance is focused on addressing some key issues, including one of the more stubborn problems we’ve been tackling that’s tied to a specific service we recently identified. Following this maintenance, we hope to see improvements to the hiccups you’ve seen, including queues.
