Imagine my shock when the notes in the #LibreOffice #Impress presentation I spent hours preparing for my online children's story hour simply were not visible. I had a great big "Notes" pane in the presenter window that was completely empty. I realized this just 15 minutes before the story hour began and had to switch to my Mac and Keynote literally at the last minute. I searched the net I found no one else with this problem. #FOSS

So, it's official. Codeberg is completely offline.

All services/servers are now in red status, unfortunately. A power outage caused this.

Wishing all of the Codeberg team a very swift power recovery and praying that no further issues occur during bringing equipment back online.

I already knew of #enve, @friction, #synfig, @glax, and #graphite, but I discovered #WickEditor, #Vivus, and #Trangram thanks to the author!

Been mulling over balancing releasing software as #FOSS but also not being taken advantage of if/when organizations start to rely on it. I know I'm certainly not the first nor last nor most experienced.

That said, I would love to hear success stories.
