+## 👶 Baby break!
+(8/2022) Hey folks, my daughter is about to be born, so I'll be taking some time off from working on ntfy. I'll likely return to working on features and bugs in a few weeks. I hope you understand. I may post some pictures in [#387](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/387) 🥰
