old.programming.dev appear to have disappeared

I used to prefer to go to https://old.programming.dev/ but this frontend is not working anymore (for a few months I believe). As I get a bad gateway response, hopefully, this is something that could be fixed.

But maybe I was the only user of this frontend, in which case, I think this might not be worth to revive it.

From what I understand, that frontend is no longer being developed and has accumulated a number of issues. Some instances may be using a custom fork of it, such as lemmy.world.
