Linode has shut down the primary server of itch.io, one of the biggest platforms for small and indie game hosting, and as of yestereve, its founder Leaf was still waiting on a response from Linode:

I just checked and my itch.io page is still up (https://gersande.itch.io — publicly very little is visible today but I have a *lot* of private and hidden projects archived there I would be very sad to lose) but if you use itch.io to host anything and your page/account are still connected, might be worth taking some extra backups today.
