We're back online from the past few hours. I would like to thank 
Without his constant support and technical know-how there wouldn't have been Steemit chat. Many incredible things that have resulted on Steemit from the use of this communications platform which connects various Steemit users directly with one another and James constantly keeping an eye on the server ensuring it's business as usual while I manage the user administration along with a bunch of incredible people to help us out!
USE http://52.15.210.158/home - temporarily!
Latest updates on the technical side of things from
Update5 - [Nearly There]
The brave among you can try the new server at: http://52.15.210.158/home
Not this is not ssl certified yet and may need to get reset but it'll scratch the itch haha. Once the DNS updates I can get us back to happy htps and steemit dot chat domain.
We still have some work pending and I request the community to remain patient as Riverhead gets it back up and running! You will be able to use the platform to it's fullest potential without any hickups soon enough!
We have hundreds of public and private channels, totalling over a thousand. I would also be initiating a clean up in the days to come as we've got some clutter that needs attention.
But over the past 10 months over 5,806,198 messages have been sent using this platform. It may not be as slick as 'Slack' but it has worked great over the past year and helped thousands of members network with one another.
Various curation guilds, trails, user engagement and retention initiatives, including the abuse fighting team 
I invite you to use Steemit.Chat and I'm sure you'll make some great friends along the way!
It's been a long journey from where we began and we've got a long way to go.
Thank you for being supportive of our efforts to connect the community and build a stronger Steemit userbase. Stay tuned for more updates!
