Why is this on Blogger?
Simplefit was hosted on paid servers, either donated by volunteers and/or
supported by advertising. The main reason for this was to host the community
forums, which used a popular forum open source software. As interest and new
posts dwindled in 2022, it no longer made sense to maintain the hosting, and
all the maintenance it requires, not to mention the constant pruning of spam
accounts. It was decided to transfer the content to a free hosting platform,
back up the forum and honor the legacy of simplefit by keeping the content
alive and ad free.
