Hello! I am wondering what is going on with glitch moving forward.
You guys took Self Web Hosting out so I am just wondering what will Glitch be used for from now on.
Danke Shnön!

At it stands, there are no plans for Glitch. The service will be fully shut down at the end of this year, with redirects support until the end of 2026.
Alright. Danke Shnön! Hope their is more for Glitch.
I doubt there will be, but some folks have been exploring other options and talking about it in the forum, and I’ll admit that even I’ve been basically reinventing “what if Glitch, but […]” which in my case was “what if Glitch, but decentralized and you just stand up your own instance for you and your group of friends”, with that project hosted over on https://github.com/pomax/make-webbly-things.
Sehr schön
If Glitch became a paid-only program, I would 100% use it.
Most definitely. If it was paid hosting only I would sooooo pay just to stay here.

Check out replit.com.
The IDE is better than Glitch, and is paid for hosting
Glitch was excellent for teachers and students.
fastly alternatives, replit, guthub pages etc are a NO-GO for teachers and students.
In that respect, Glitch is much needed and should be continued.
Maybe on a donation basis?
Please, like if you agree.

Glitch is general purpose enough for educators, students, hobbyists.

Hey, this project is pretty cool ngl. If you want, whenever you’re done ironing out the quirks or whatnot, I can help you out with the frontend if you’re up for it.
It’s a github repo with a bunch of folks already pitching in, so no need to wait until everything’s ironed out tbh =P
If you have cool ideas for frontend improvements, pitch them, always happy to mull over other folks’ ideas.
Whoa. AI actually got words in?!

That’s very interesting -thanks for the repo, but is anybody planning on hosting it online, I mean as a business or something?
That would be great as a Glitch replacement.
I certainly hope not.
It’s a “you get to stand up your own instance”, so if you’re an educator you (or your IT team) could set it up on your intranet, or if you teach online courses you can set it up on your own dedicated domain, if you’re just someone who wants a Glitch-a-like for tinkering in, you can run it on localhost, etc.
It’s explicitly written to not scale to business size: anyone can set up their own instance for themselves and the people they feel should have access to their instance, similar to something like Mastodon, with federation still in the works (so that instances can link up to form larger communities with cross-instance feeds and collaboration, also still in the works).
