📢 Info & Announcements

Tape continues to grow. As always, a huge thank you to our community for making this possible - your ongoing support in expanding the Tape family with new users means everything.
We remain committed to reinvesting in our infrastructure and technology to ensure the highest levels of reliability. To minimize disruptions, we’ll be working on this over the weekend.

:spiral_calendar: Scheduled for Sunday February 9, 2025, from 05:00 to 07:00 AM UTC
Tape will be unavailable for a certain period during the maintenance window.
The same information will be published on our status-page
Our team will be with you, providing live updates here.

Thanks for being part of this incredible journey with us!


UPDATE – 4 February:
We have adjusted the start time from 4:00 AM UTC to 5:00 AM UTC after an organization informed us that they had already scheduled multiple API changes with another service at the originally planned time.
New time: 5:00 – 7:00 AM UTC

Based on our logs, the total downtime was about 8 minutes.

I really wish we could get this level of transparency in all aspects of our lives. Above all else, this is the one thing that I hope never changes.
