This outage has now been largely resolved, and services are back online. We are still clearing a few lingering issues, however, meaning some users will experience delays in email delivery and reception, and receiving notifications. No data has been lost as a result of this outage. UPDATE: We have now resolved the remaining minor issues. We will be providing a post mortem with more information about the incident, here on the status page, after we complete the incident clean up.
