Hello!
I am still safe, especially after these 40 days of war that took place in my country.

I don't want to write a critique of the war; everything is relatively clear. Fortunately, I am in the eastern part of the country, which wasn't damaged much.

But well... the Iranian government has shut down the internet for us for 40 days; this is truly annoying and has even caused many things to be destroyed.

Whether it is the digital economy, or businesses that were active on Telegram and the internet. Whether it's website SEO. For example, my own project, Parch GNU/Linux, has had its servers go out of reach because they were in Iran, and I cannot provide updates for it without the internet. Even its rank on DistroWatch has dropped significantly. Who is going to compensate for these government-inflicted losses later?

These events have caused people to be forced to migrate to government-monitored platforms, most of which are a fourth-rate copy of Telegram.

There have been struggles too; we are resisting this by using Delta Chat, Matrix, and even XMPP so as not to go to these platforms.

Pray for us.
