Got a little interested in Bergger film in 35 mm again. Freestyle and B&H out of stock until Dec 31. How can you wait 4 months for a roll of film?
Will not join Facebook for many reasons so I will not get the new messages. Just noticed Jobo has a site.
Darkroom is reopening after a long shutdown except for developing a few rolls.
I MISS PRINTS. Sure I know how to get digital prints, really nice pro ones, but I miss the PROCESS.

Bergger is not manufacturing themselves. They are dependent on real producers who are producing for them (Ilford, Filmotec, Inoviscoat).
But whether this shortage is caused by the manufacturers, or by sellers like Freestyle and B&H, I don't know.
But I know that currently in some cases (other companies) shortages are caused by higher demand than expected.
You don't have to join. It is a public Facebook site, you can read all Jobo news just like on any other website, too.
Make your own darkroom and enjoy printing. I am doing it and loving the process, too.
