The .onion site is still up, which is the only site that has ever mattered. Stop putting stock into what happens with the clearnet version as whirlwind stated from day 1 that they don't really care about it and only implemented it because people wanted it to exist.
What is .onion, it's DarkNet, isn' it, Sir? I'm not member at DarkNet. When will whirlwind normal link work normal again, Sir?
