Good morning or afternoon or evening or night everyone, depending on your timezone! Holiday announcement time!

As we do every year, we'll be taking a chunk of December off from work. This year, our cheeky little holiday will be from the 12th of December up to and including the 2nd of January.

What does that mean, you ask? During that time, we'll make the Matrix help, general, and code channels read-only, and we'll make the Github repository read-only as well. This means that during our holiday period, you won't be able to create issues or pull requests or ask us questions.

We do this to give us time to relax, enjoy quality time with friends and family, play video games, eat gingerbread, drink tea, and pet our various animals, in order to recharge our batteries for the year ahead without worrying about new issues coming in.

This doesn't mean that development work will completely stop for the duration of the holiday, just that the "user-facing" side of the development work will pause, as this is the part that we find drains our nerd batteries the fastest. We are, after all, computer-touching hermits.

So there! It's been a great year for GoToSocial in our opinions, and we're looking forward to working on cool new shit for you all (and for ourselves) in 2025, once we're raring to go again after a break. Thanks for reading! Now pet the sloth:
