`26.Aug.2023` Reddit	Font: "TopazDouble" as Amiga-native recreation of Topaz "TopazDouble" is an Amiga-native recreation of the 8×8 pixel Topaz font, now rendered in 8×16 for modern resolutions. As the developers wrote, the classic Amiga with 640×256 (PAL) uses a resolution close to 2:1 - which means that the standard Topaz font would be half-height if used with resolutions with a pixel aspect ratio closer to 1:1. For some reason, an Amiga-native version of a double-height Topaz font for resolutions with a square (1:1) had never been written, which "TopazDouble" was now making up for. This font is said to be ideal for "modern" resolutions such as 800×600, 1024×768, classic Amiga resolutions such as 640×400 and 640×512 (Hi-Res Interlace) - as well as 16:9 resolutions such as 720p and 1080p.

`15.Aug.2023`	AROS: Forum closes, successor recommended Already in the middle of July Ola '4pLaY' Jensen had announced that the forum "AROS-Exec" would be closed on September 19 for health and financial reasons. Since nothing has changed since then, Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz recommends to use AROSWorld as successor. Ola Jensen's withdrawal from the AROS Archives, on the other hand, has no further consequences, since Krzysztof Śmiechowicz has already supported him here since the end of 2021 and continues this commitment.
