August 2018 - Web Updates

31 Aug 2018, 00:00
This month the service was migrated to a totally new service provider and datacenter setup. Our configuration was changed entirely to optimise for performance and stability of the service. For this reason there were fewer changes than usual, and most time was spent porting, refactoring and fixing the service to work with the new setup.

  • Improved resolution of Token icons for retina screens
