Shoryuken.com Dead

I was today years old when I found out Shoryuken.com is dead, and apparently has been for a few years now. Reading some of the discussion, the consensus seems to be it's a terrible loss of knowledge, while at the same time is sort of a "what did they think would happen?" with the lack of administrative effort and proliferation of toxic behavior.

Others (myself included) also see one more domino down as social media (Discord, Reddit, et al.) gradually takes over and fragments hobby communities into ever smaller factions. We're quickly becoming the one of the last holdouts. On the bright side, our traffic is still climbing (albeit very slowly).

Just me thinking out loud a bit...

It was apparently replaced with a site called SuperCombo.

Yeah... except not really. That's how I found out in the first place. The replacement site seems pretty dead too.

They are active on Twitter quite a bit though.
