Synth-DIY Yahoo! Groups Archives

Yahoo booting us out

2019-10-18 by Nigel Cruickshank

As some of you may know, as of December 14th Yahoo will delete any files or images uploaded or attached to the groups. Also, I believe they are moving to permanently end the Yahoo groups site from what I have read.

It would be heartbreaking to lose the valuable info on this group. It’s invaluable for owner based repairs, especially in the case of the CS80 where moving the unit is risky and most techs wouldn’t want to take the job of repair on anyhow.

It seems like Groups.io might be worth looking into but we’ll need to do something for sure.

I’m sending this out to all of the groups that i’m part of as most owners aren’t even aware of this.

Hi list,


I’m the admin of daw-mac, a list that upon til last week was hosted on yahoo. I migrated the list to groups.io <http://groups.io/>. It can be done fairly easily. With a minimum of downtime. The only thing that you will (almost loose), is the archives. The archives can be handled fairly easily as well, but it won’t be online.

I maybe able to help out, if the admin contacts me offline.


Best,
Bjorn
