<h2>Switch to new paste service</h2>
<p class="color-contrast-medium">
We migrate over to <a href="https://github.com/supakeen/pinnwand">pinnwand</a>
as the service that powers our paste bin over at <a>https://paste.pythondiscord.com/</a>.
We made the switch as it comes with native light/dark modes, support for multi-file
pastes, additional support for text highlighting languages, and plus, it's written in
Python!

<h2>Switch to forum-based help system</h2>
<p class="color-contrast-medium">
We migrate our help system to use a forum channel, retiring our home-grown rotating help
system after 3 years of service and nearly 500,000 help sessions. Forum channels offer
a better experience as members can create their own dedicated thread in a discoverable place.
