I've been meaning to make a post about Thorium, but I just didn't get around to it. Now there are these Reddit posts that would do a better job than I ever could.
TL:DR
People got mad over a furry easter egg in Thorium, then the developer got falsely accused of hosting cp on GitHub.
Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, guests can no longer search the forum or view user accounts. At some point in the future Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability and the lifting of these restrictions. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.
