[h2]Participating in the beta test[/h2][hr][/hr]

What will be my goal?
A beta tester provides feedback and reports bugs from the current beta build, enabling our team of developers to make necessary adjustments and fix reported issues effectively.

We plan to start the Beta in the following weeks to give you time for feedback during the rest of the month!

How can I sign up for the closed beta?
