Regarding checking news, seems like the RSS still works (thanks AlienMind). For how long is anyone's guess, now that it's no longer linked (and that link was removed since they replaced the footer, not just now).

Splatsch: - First, main page doesn't works well now for me : things are missing/broken (I'm using latest version of Pale Moon).
Was wondering about that, but so far two others said it worked fine.Post edited October 03, 2018 by Cavalary
