What do you mean by this? I don't see any indication of them shutting down on the homepage, only on the blog.

I got this popup from their homepage:

> Dotscience

> Thanks for checking out dotscience, unfortunately due to the current situation we have had to close our doors and are no longer operating. You may however enjoy checking out the MLOps community to find out more about all the tooling and best practices happening right now in this ever changing landscape.

> Here are some relevant links to the MLOps community: Slack, Youtube, Weekly meetups.

Huh, that's interesting. I even tried a private browsing window without any form of blocking, but I don't get a popup at all.
I got the pop-up but only on the first visit to the home page. Subsequent visits or a refresh do not trigger the pop-up. Firefox on Win. Noscript set to temporarily allow all.
