pythonplugin: Clean up error handling a bit
Don't g_error() but only g_critical() when things go wrong and return FALSE. g_error() would kill the application immediately. Also check if we can actually get gi.repository.Gst before using it.
Due to an influx of spam, we have had to impose restrictions on new accounts. Please see this wiki page for instructions on how to get full permissions. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Equinix is shutting down its operations with us on April 30, 2025. They have graciously supported us for almost 5 years, but all good things come to an end. We are expecting to transition to new infrastructure between late March and mid-April. We do not yet have a firm timeline for this, but it will involve (probably multiple) periods of downtime as we move our services whilst also changing them to be faster and more responsive. Any updates will be posted in freedesktop/freedesktop#2011 as it becomes clear, and any downtime will be announced with further broadcast messages.
