Minor Patch 0.29.1 (Apr 7th, 2021) - Edited

Hello my lovely Lumia locals. Aesop here with a piping hot dish of Patch Notes.
As usual, it's a minor patch to help settle all the big changes we made last week.
The servers will go down to apply the 0.29.1 update for 3 hours, give or take, starting 7PM (PT) tomorrow.
