To add to the earlier comment, Myrient is/was amazing indeed but eventually suffered from increased heavy use and people getting greedy with it. One of those situations that if you give people an inch, they take a mile. I know on their Discord they say financing and abuse are factors, but it wouldn't surprise me if the bulk of it is has to do with donations being poor. Really hard to expect the crowd that would use that site to actually contribute financially.

Oh well, shame that it'll be gone. Hopefully the people that needlessly hoarded what they could have the decency to share it back.

Unfortunate, Myrient was a legendary place for preservation with no ads and fast download speeds.

It will be missed.

A popular game archive service with around 390 TB of data, Myrient, will be closing its metaphorical doors later next month. Citing rapidly rising infrastructure costs, abusive usage, and lack of increase in donations, the service's founder has deemed it unsustainable.
