#deltachat PSAs regarding the last 24 hours:
1) If you messaged someone about 20-30 hours ago, and did not get an expected response/receipt better "resend" (long-tap or right-click the message to resend). Unfortunately, not all queued messages at the crashing nine.testrun.org server made it to the new one.
2) 2.33+ app releases are rolling out, supporting using "multiple relays" so that failing relays (like happened above) will not cause lost messages anymore. See support.delta.chat/t/how-to-mi…
How to migrate your profile to another relay (version 2.33)
Let’s say you have initially created a profile on the default relay and want to migrate away from it. Update at least to 2.33 on all your devices: Help testing upcoming Delta Chat 2.33.Delta Chat

in reply to devSJR • • •there is a blog post coming. bear with us :)
but roughly the current first multi-relay release introduces the ability to have more than one relay associated to your chat profile. You can choose what is your primary device, but will receive messages also on all secondaries. This is just an intermediate step towards another release where the outcome will be: if any relay works, the message will get through. single relays failing don't matter.

in reply to Delta Chat • • •Would it mean that is also a way to change a severer without losing the connections? Say somebody started 2018 with Gmail but now wants to be recognized on their own server (e.g., own company …)?

in reply to Delta Chat • • •You are certainly right when you say “it's more complicated than you might think”. I am fine with waiting.
BTW, I always like these non-noisy updates. The last one included "calls" which is a big deal. However, it seemed to have the same importance as “we fixed this one bug that affect one person in a hypothetical scenario”. In this release, there is yet another big feature.
Keep up the good work.
