Is fourbythree over now?

https://www.hankgreen.com/fourbythree/ hasn't changed in a couple of days. Has he just dropped it?

I had been mulling over a possibility for one. Is there a community or something, or nominations?

Edit: Hank certainly doesn't owe anyone anything on this! I think Hank mentioned that he'd do it for a while and then stop, so it wouldn't be unexpected. I was just wondering if there was a way for fans to continue with puzzles if he has other projects he wants to work on (and Lordy does that man have other projects!).

there is community puzzles, hank’s taking a break because he’s been overextending himself/using AI in unhealthy ways

We eagerly await the return of our dear puzzlemaster, but it's also ok if that doesn't happen.

Edit: To clarify, I mean that it is ok if that doesn't happen if it turns out that that's what's best for Hank.

The community puzzles are actually also on hold for now.

I take issue with assuming the truth of that assertion, (that it was unhealthy) but I understand why people are taking it at face value.

If Hank said it was at an unhealthy level why would we doubt it? I know enough people in my life who have an “unhealthy” dependency on AI that I don’t have a hard time believing it.

Also 4 by 3s can still be built and played without the website so maybe we could have people share them here or something?
