What's been going on with Desuarchive/RebeccaBlackTech for the past few weeks?

We moved to a new server. Our previous cloud provider was oversubscribed (an ongoing problem for years) which eventually became intolerable and got in the way of backup dumps.

Our search server is in the process of migration.

The new server will allow us to make database dumps more frequently.

What happened to RebeccaBlackTech?

The Bibliotheca Anonoma has operated RebeccaBlackTech.com/rbt.asia at the request of the domain owner for the past few years since their home server could no longer handle the strain of a growing 4chan.

During this server move, we renegotiated hosting terms with the RebeccaBlackTech.com/rbt.asia domain owner, who no longer wanted to operate a 4chan archive, but will maintain a domain redirect indefinitely. Therefore, we have integrated the boards into Desuarchive.
