    I saw this and remembered this thread, but it looks like someone stepped in to take over and Miraheze won't shut down.

    Wow. What a shame, I have used Miraheze for quite a few things. What are the best options for migration, just wikia and such?

    This is honestly terrible news. I used Miraheze a couple times a few years ago to host wikis, and they were fantastic to work with.
