The original socket.computer ran from ~April 2014 to October 2016.
During and after the month of October 2016, the following events occured:
*October 9, 2016: socket.computer freezes, and the server stops responding. This outage also affected socket.io's chat, as well as weplay.io. This makes October 9, 2016 at 11:25 PM (EST) the last known time socket.computer and weplay.io were online.
*August 25, 2018: socket.computer's domain expires and is now up for sale, confirming the project is permanently closed.
*February 2019: socket.computer now redirects to a parked domain.
*February 2020: Parked domain is not renewed, and socket.computer is now for sale.▼
==The return of socket.computer==
▲*February 2020: Parked domain is not renewed, and socket.computer is now for sale.
*11:11:16AM EST February 6th, 2020: Dartz purchases the socket.computer domain.
While socket.computer had effectively been relegated to a domain sitting in limbo for about 4 years, on April Fools Day (April 1st) 2024, that all changed.
As an April Fools Day joke, the CollabVM site was redirected to socket.computer under the guise that CollabVM had shut down, and the socket.computer domain was then running the original socket.io-computer, running in a VM running Ubuntu 16.04 (Even then, the socket.computer code didn't like that very much and had many bugs that didn't even happen on the original site).
