The last server migration was done under some amount of duress. It was supposed to be just a temporary solution, to migrate into the cloud. It has been 14 months since then, and I have to say, the cloud is pretty nice and there is no practical reason to migrate back out of the cloud.
However, the January 2024 setup was always meant to be temporary. Our website is currently hosted through an SSH tunnel, which sometimes fails due to running out of sockets...! This was the only way at the time that I could pass the port through from the VM to the host system.
Also, because time has passed and our host has ordered new servers, we are able to get a faster server for significantly less money per month if we migrate.
Therefore, in about 2 to 4 days, I will take the servers down for a couple hours for migration to a new virtual machine at the same cloud hosting provider, in around Washington DC. I will post updates in this thread, and on our Discord. This website will also be offline during the migration.
