Sad day, but the digital carousel of penises will live on elsewhere.

Would be nice if they had opensourced the code so anyone else could host it.

Considering the reasons for shutting down, specifically that it took too many resources to keep out bad actors and keep the site as safe as possible, I don't think making it open source is a good idea.

It's always a good idea to "open" something that is "closing". We can't comprehend what others might be able to do with it.
