lemonfool investing forum down?

Is the lemonfool investing forum down? I don't seem to have been able to access it for a number of days at least, and various website status sites seem to also suggest that it is currently down? I hope that the site hasn't closed down entirely as there is some useful investing discussion there.

I frequent it most days and it has been unavailable for me for 3 or 4 days now. Seems like something's up. Possibly a hosting problem1

Me too - haven't been able to access the site since Thursday.2

I thought it was just me (or my computer) which it didn't like.0

It seems to have been down for a few days. I got onto it briefly Saturday morning then next time I tried it had gone again

Yes it was up briefly Saturday morning then disappeared again. I wonder if it's been attacked by Scattered Spider like Marks & Spencer?1

I can't see a simple forum with low participation, kept going by user donations, being a target for ransom.scott4534 said:Yes it was up briefly Saturday morning then disappeared again. I wonder if it's been attacked by Scattered Spider like Marks & Spencer?
If it was up on Saturday morning, was there anything about why it had been down before?0 -

It seems they've not been very lucky with their choice of provider. At least the mods have not decided to abandon it.1

Whilst on the subject, anybody any thoughts about MSE forums vs Lemon Fool maybe vs Citywire and others ?
I have looked at the others but realised I did not have enough interest/brainspace/time in general to spread my wings beyond MSE significantly.0 -
Ditto. I browse from time to time, but generally find them quieter and less usable. Bogleheads is another that has some useful discussions.Albermarle said:Whilst on the subject, anybody any thoughts about MSE forums vs Lemon Fool maybe vs Citywire and others ?
