The issue has been resolved: The upstream network has corrected the problem. Normal service should be restored. Over the course of 19 minutes, we dropped 10 of our ~500 upstream chat.sr.ht connections. We are still experiencing internal issues, but they are not service impacting and we expect them to clear up shortly. (20:22 UTC — Dec 20)
An ongoing issue with our upstream network provider is causing chat.sr.ht reliability problems: An issue with our network provider is causing some unreliability for our services. The full extent of the problem is still not known, but the most important consequence of it so far is that chat.sr.ht connections to upstream networks are unreliable. You may experience disconnections and intermittent service. (20:03 UTC — Nov 16)
