I missed the retirement of paste.lisp.org <http://paste.lisp.org/>: it was running read-only for quite a while. Was a decision made to shut it down permanently?
No, that decision made itself: the ever since the bots have been kicked off Libera, the server has been failing to serve lisppaste as well. The only thing I did after months of failure (which I did note only in arrears; I wasn't actively looking at these failures happening), I took the sbcl out of its misery and just shut it down.
I/we did not get a single reaction over it failing for months. I understand your point but given the limited availability to work on the maintenance of the server as it is in combination with the lack of complaints, even on the regular libera channels *and* nobody to step up even to fix the situation with the bots, I'm not sure there is enough priority and capacity anywhere to work on it... So then there is no point?
Things do get lost on the web... Ideally since it was serving read-only anyway, we transform the content to their read-only pages and host just the static content. But even that takes time...
