Damn, so is bash.org dead for good?

I sadly missed the glory days of early internet, message boards and
IRC, but man, I remember reading bash quotes and enjoying the hell out
of it.

I accidentally opened the android app that I had most recently used,
quite a while ago albeit, and found out that the site is dead.

From searching I guess it has happened on and off before but it seems
like it's been dead for 10 months now?

If so, damn, RIP. I don't think you were getting updates, and yeah,
there's bound to be backups, but I'll miss you

Qdb.us seems basically dead too.

Shame, I'd have happily mirrored and hosted it.

I've seen this exact part verbatim but you can use waybackmachine to
read bash

who maintained it? if it's a hosting issue i'll gladly keep it running
in perpetuity. bash.org should live forever even if it's just as a
museum piece

Thankfully someone grabbed every quote (as near as I can tell) and
uploaded them onto [archive.org](https://archive.org).

The vote metadata wasn't preserved.

today i went for [bash.org](https://bash.org) for old times sake, it's
gone. found this post on reddit. Now browsing
[bash.org](https://bash.org) quotes on the wayback machine. I've never
felt so old in my life.
