It appears the chat (https://chat.inkscape.org) has been down since ~1PM UTC (2025-02-01)

Issue was already opened about it : https://gitlab.com/inkscape/infra/services/-/issues/50

EDIT: The issue was resolved around 9PM UTC, 2025-02-01.

Thanks - I've been noticing that for hours too. But I can't contact anyone who might be able to take responsibility.

The infrastructure manager (Marc) is reportedly on his way to FOSDEM, so a solution would take longer than usual. Please hold until there's further updates :)

Back up as of now (1 AM UTC, 2025-02-02).
