  On the cost, would it not be cheaper to buy some beefy servers and move on prem somewhere friendly?

  It might also be better to whip up the crowds and spend a lump of cash in the short term rather than rely on ongoing donations that may dwindle?

  If the tech strategy is one of just keep the lights on, then the compute costs (and need for new servers) shouldnt increase.

  Very sad news. Despite mainly lurking and occasionally using the classifieds, this place has given me a lot over the years. Will miss it, but perhaps it's the nudge for me to actually go out and ride a bike instead of reading about someone else's Saab.

  Massively appreciate all the work you've put into this @Velocio over the years. I totally understand your reasons for wanting to pull the plug. Real real shame, but I get it.
