Today we are introducing the Broad Sound Taxonomy, a user-friendly taxonomy for the categorization of sounds that enables new ways to browse Freesound. Sounds are labeled by their creators, but we also use ML models to categorize previously uploaded sounds https://t.co/CMzneFHl1f

@InwoodArtWorks @kevdurr66 Kev Durr — his contributions to @freesounddev (Also, many thanks to YOU @mtg_upf 🙏) are *legendary*. Unsung hero. Excellent field recordings are the lifeblood of great sound design and it's an under-appreciated aspect of the craft. There's more... 11/x

We can not provide a specific answer as it does not depend on us but on the global university IT services. Current estimate is that services should be back in the afternoon, but this might change. Thanks for the understanding.
