*Ubuntu appears with that as their stated intention*

The other evening, a friend from Corsica was telling me about planting trees using salvaged World War 2 land mines.

A lot of soil in Corsica is very compacted so, after the war, people would drill a hole into the ground and drop a little explosive into it. The blast would loosen a small patch of ground and also fertilise it — the explosives used potassium nitrate, which is great for fruit trees.

So there are orchards in Corsica which were planted with explosives, and I think that's cool. 🍎 💣

I'm looking for links to:
- projects that have been sunsetted (can be software but doesn't have to be)
- organizations that closed down but still have some sort of web presence
- guidance on sunsetting projects
- guidance on closing down a business or organization

Thanks in advance for your help!

This is definitely my favorite of all the social media platforms. Alt-community abounds on an OG, standards based protocol with zero corporate ownership.
