What benefits do you have as an SKS operator, to still support such
old and dangerous GnuPG/SKS client-server model, in 2020?

Are you on this list just to troll or do you have anything useful to say?

So much this. Some of us have a legitimate need for what SKS provides that can’t be accommodated by the new kids on the block like Hagrid & Mailvelope. Neither supports third party signatures and the web of trust. I’ve reached out to the Hagrid team about that & peering but  People also seem to still be actively using SKS for new & updated keys as well, based on the stats page.

I have spent hardly any time keeping my SKS VMs operational for some time now (knock on wood). The last 2 issues I had were some VMs dropping out due to an underlying hardware problem unrelated to SKS even. I’ve posted about my configuration before on the list back on February 17, 2019 if you or anyone else is interested in improving your setup and possibly freeing up your time for other things.
