Private TV & movie tracker FearNoPeer has gone offline permanently. Almost no warning was given to users, just a terse email:

FNP is closing — a short note from Kami

After almost three years of running this site largely on my own, I’ve made the decision to step away. This is about my own health and capacity, not any single event.

The server will be shutting down in 30 minutes or less from when you receive this message and i encourage you to share it and be aware. After that, the site will not return.

I’m grateful for every contribution that helped keep FNP online, and I’m sorry that what I can offer in return is this notice rather than more time.

If you want the longer account of what happened — for your own reading — it’s here and i suggest everyone to read it: https://rentry.co/h2ch4wfr

Thank you to every genuine member who made this community what it was over the past three years. You’re the part of this I’ll remember.

— Kami

    I hope most people got a screenshot of their profile before they shut down to at least get some apps in other entry-level trackers. But with 1h notice probably not.

    FNP was a big tracker and I’m sure a lot of people will miss it but it wasn’t really a great tracker. Kami was very jealous and protective, trying to be great by harming other trackers rather than growing together. I’m sure that these people will be able to find better homes that are more part of the private tracker community rather than trying to stand apart and suck in donations.
