Et voila! The mirror is wired back together, and we're in lock-step with dowdy.dev. Somehow the restoration made my infosec.exchange widget work as well, where it didn't before. WIN!
BAAACK FROM THE GRAAAAVE!!!!
Neocities flagged my site automatically over the security tooling, but they finally got back to my appeal and reinstated me. The mirror is still intact, but needs to be un-commented. I'll fix that tonight at work.
Tonight's the night to get the mirror CI/CD plugged in. That's why it's taking so long. Without the plumbing, it's as simple as using the neocities CLI to push the _site dir, but need it to coalesce with our VPS push, our Forgejo push, our git mirror. There is a lot more going on in the back end. I'll do it tonight though.
Added my new background at least, if it's gonna take me this long to get the mirror up. I'm just a procrastinator.
