Hi everyone, happy new year! As we bid farewell to '23, let's take a moment to
reflect on the remarkable journey FMHY has had this year:
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- We made a new website, enriched with an array of handcrafted features (by me,
of course) to enhance your experience and make browsing the wiki pleasant on
all devices (mobile included!)
- We opened our Discord server and reached 10k members, which introduced many
new great people to this community and made contribution easy
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
- We've reached 250k+ members and 31 million views on reddit!
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Our FMHYedit repository oversaw an impressive 1k+ pull requests made by the
community and merged over 8k commits!
- This wiki has grown to be more than just a piracy index, so we felt it's about
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
time other sections get some love. As such, we organized and separated tools
sections into their own pages, which allowed us to move a lot of useful tools
out of storage and make it a lot easier to discover them
- We started the debloat arc of FMHY and went from 27k links to 24k! We've
removed a lot of dead, useless, and niche links / categories, as well as
re-organized a lot of sections for better clarity and easier navigation
As we enter 2024, we eagerly anticipate building on our achievements and
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
evolving together. FMHY wouldn't be what it is today without the love and
support of everyone in this community. Thank you for being an integral part of
FMHY. Here's to another year of growth and success! 💙

# Things Removed
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Removed SevenGamers as they've
[decided to shut down](https://i.imgur.com/C5sgVqI.png).
- Removed YasDL as they uploaded a version of StarDock with the same malware
that filecr and others have gotten removed for.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Removed Torrentz2 as they've stopped indexing new torrents.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Unstarred LookMovie as they've added a
[10 second wait](https://i.imgur.com/I0D9Hyt.png) before videos play.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Unstarred DS4Windows in gaming tools. You can just add games to steam and turn
on PS4 controller support by right clicking the game.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
- Unstarred Ideogram as its no longer unlimited.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Removed EveryNoiseAtOnce as the dev has been
[let go from Spotify](https://i.imgur.com/AaIrcAc.png).
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Removed CryptoStorm as its [possibly unsafe](https://i.imgur.com/VDlSY1T.png).
The owner has no ties to it anymore apparently, but its still hard to trust a
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
company with a history this dark.
2024-01-01 04:19:09 +00:00
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
- Removed our backups from NotABug. Their site goes down nearly
[every day](https://i.imgur.com/Vx8Ou68.png) at this point, and its become a
nightmare to keep 25 wiki pages updated there. If they ever fix their issues
2024-02-11 15:00:58 +00:00
we may bring it back.
