The actual website ends in .org, but whenever I visit it or manually type in the address, this happens. I don't know if it's my browser or what (I use Brave).

For a moment I thought I was on a fake page. I hadn't read the announcement about the page's status, but why would they have chosen the .one domain? I don't know yet.

I knew the .xyz domain from pirate websites that occasionally had many viruses, unless the creator could afford a domain like .com or .net (which someone else possibly acquired).

It was just one of the few non-country-specific domain thingies that isn't controlled by the usa (apparently the country-specific ones have search results suppressed outside the relevant country, so not ideal)

Okay, I understand. Choosing a domain that isn't controlled by the US was a good decision. I will miss the .org domain of the site since it represented the game's music format.

Ngl I didn't even realize that happened. I'm so used to the forums being my homepage for literal years.

The forum hasn't changed its domain, which I don't know if it's good or bad, but it's good to remember what the original domain of the tribute page was.

I moved hosts and switched to a different domain registrar as well.

The .one tld registry is based in Denmark, the new domain registrar (Nordname) is based in Finland, the new hosting provider (UpCloud) is also based in Finland, and the server is physically located in Denmark. Finland and Denmark are amongst the highest-ranked countries in terms of internet freedom.

It hasn't changed changed its domain yet. It will happen when I get around to doing it.

Me too...
