It looks like the domain might have expired and was scooped up by someone else? It's registered to 'cesar garcia' now. And the fresh install of WordPress that existed before is now full of generic SEO-keyword-optimised "How to" guides for Mastodon.
It'll be a shame if that's the case. Guppe Groups was a good way to further reach of posts.
yes, there were all kinds of groups promoting solidarity and discussion. I'm showing my age here, but it recalled to me the email discussion groups on yahoo et al back in the 90s and early 2000s.
I'm a nul in informatics, so I don't know how to evaluate what's happened, and am grateful for the observations of ppl with more competence than me. I've seen "outages" on these groups before, which were resolved. But this sounds more serious (?)

There's no activity from @SyndicWill on his socials recently, the domain for immers(dot)space is also down, no update to the Open Collective since late 2024.
Still active on GitHub though - I'll see if I can reach out. If the project is dead, I guess donations via OpenCollective should stop.
"Damn the upstream registry sold it off before it expired. My registrar said I had till 9/15. I’ll cancel the subscriptions. And issue refunds"
This is awful news! How can a registry sell a domain before it expires?
