After doing some searching on blog.replit.com, it appears that the article was taken down. Is that right? Why?

It appears to be taken down, but it’s on the Internet Archive. ( :heart: to whoever saved it)

Ah the Internet Archive. So wonderful! Why did they take it down? Perhaps because of our protest?

We might be able to find the file on a fork of the blog repl.

Hmm then why delete it? They were so proud of it when they first released it?
