Do you know why it went offline? I'll assume lack of funding. What would be the best way to make a niche-app like this self-funding, given developers' aversion to ads? Donations? Monthly/Annual subscription? I have a similar site that I want to spin up, that serves a different purpose but has a similar interface.

AFICT this replacement is hosted on Github pages, so there shouldn't really be any funding concerns.

Really something like this shouldn't rely on being hosted by one person. A decentralized protocol like dat[0] would solve this problem.

Here, the social aspects could be useful, like following my friends mind maps etc.
