Payment update 🐳 We’re sorry to users who paid but didn’t see their balance updated. Like many popular open-source projects, we’ve been dealing with a ridiculous amount of credit card fraud recently. While tightening our defenses, some legitimate payments were caught as false positives. We’ve just shipped additional fixes. Things should be much smoother now. If you're still having issues, please leave us a message and we’ll get it sorted 🐳
