Hi Fediverse

it seems to me that switching.social closed down it's services. All social media accounts are deleted and the site is currently offline.

Unfortunately, I have no clue what happened, I'm as surprised as you are. I already contacted the French, Italian and Turkish version of the site.

In case someone knows anything about what happened or has backups of one/multiple pages of the website, I would be very happy to get in touch with you.

Once again here the link to the Wayback machine, where you can still visit the original site:

@swisode Nooooo... Unfortunately, not all pages have been archived. For example, https://web.archive.org/web/20190915101437/https://switching.social/ethical-alternatives-to-imgur-and-photobucket/ is missing (Ethical alternatives to imgur and photobucket). Does anyone have backups of the site? We need to restore this! It was the best link to give other, non-techy people to give them the option of at least a well-informed choice!

@swisode There's a snapshot of [email protected] on the wayback machine as well: http://web.archive.org/web/20190609132738/https://mastodon.at/@switchingsocial Works surprisingly well!
