Hello everyone,

I am sorry for this very short notice; it is with great sadness to announce I will be stepping down as administrator of HashNet.

This may come as a shock to many of you as I've been quite consistent in providing service and helping clients for the past eleven years. Unfortunately, over the past few months I've had to make some really tough decisions which costed me more than I hoped. There are a lot of factors and time constraints involved which lead me to not being able to properly elect my replacement.

For the time being, HashNet will be running on auto-pilot (unmanaged) as of June 8th 2022, effective immediately.

I have given a few trusted individuals administrative privileges to HashNet and am confident in their abilities.

I started HashNet with the idea of "persistent hosting" meaning no matter what (even cost) always trying to remain online for decades to come. Unlike AWS, DO, or other hosts out there, I was passionate about projects/hobbies/sites that wanted to stay alive far beyond their normal expiration. My goal was to provide a platform for services to always remain available, similar to archive.org but for all kinds of services, not just HTTP. I have made that a reality and hope it continues.

I appreciate each and every one of you, it was a wild ride.
