The time has come to move saidit's servers to Switzerland. This will give us greater data security, freedom, and privacy for all saidit users.

This is a picture of Vaud, Switzerland, the actual city where saidit.net will be hosted in 31 hours from this being posted.
When July 3 at 2am Central US time arrives, the servers will become inoperable for 30-60 minutes while the newest snapshot of the saidit.net database is copied from the Dallas server to the Swiss server, and unpacked/installed. Once this is complete, saidit.net will then point at the Swiss server and we'll be hosted in Switzerland!
Let's also take a moment and say thank you to d3rr, who has put a lot of effort lately in to this move and making sure it goes well. He's been working a lot on backend server efficiency too, which maybe isn't too exciting from a user standpoint, but is absolutely critical for the long-term as saidit gets larger. Kudos to d3rr. He also completely resolved some bugs recently that were causing server errors and slowdowns, so now saidit works more quickly than ever.
Thanks to everyone who has continued to support saidit, we're excited to make another improvement that will help saidit continue to offer free information for a long time to come.
