A bit of server history…
The server was created on 27 April 2014 in response to the needs of users of the closing polish server aqq.eu. It initially ran on a Raspberry Pi for the first few days, but due to the high demand and interest, it was moved to a VPS server at the OVH datacenter in Roubaix in France. In response to the growing demand for resources, on 21 October 2016, the server was moved to a newer machine in the OVH datacenter in Strasbourg in France. On 10 March 2021, the server burned down in a big fire that took place in part of the OVH server room at SBG. On the same day, the server was re-installed at the OVH datacenter in Frankfurt in Germany.
