In short I had lost motivation to keep it open. Now let me give you some
reasons why.
it was a massive money bleed ranging $60-400 a month to run.
The staff I hired didn't do the best job which is partially my
fault. I didn't do enough to keep them doing their best. This
resulted in some accidents over the course of Meteorite's 1 year
life which I don't condone and infighting. I didn't tell my staff to
censor or hide any criticism though I should of been more proactive
about what my staff were doing.
I wanted a break which is why updates slowed down but obviously the
website/discord was not in a state to leave. This also upset some
staff members which I apologize for.
To clear some things up of accusations against me since I know there is
a lot of noise.
First of all, I had already decided to shut down before the
document
even came out. It didn't influence this decision in any way. Now, we
will skip over criticisms of the website itself as that doesn't matter.
Two problematic individuals in the community were a result of my bad
management and staff favoritism over members. Security of Meteorite was
compromised from a lazy config error but I did my best to minimize the
damage and as far as I'm aware only around 70 places leaked on the
internet.
Thanks, sushi. it's been fun. Maybe we meet again
