# Beaker Browser is now archived
**Dec 27, 2022**
Hi friends! This won't come as a huge shock, but the time has finally come that I archive the Beaker Browser repo. In 2022 I moved on to working at [Bluesky](https://blueskyweb.xyz), and, while the Beaker project is coming to an official end, the heart of Beaker continues with Bluesky. I hope the work we do will make Beaker's end a little less painful in the long run.
I'm going to share a post-mortem in this doc, but first I want to thank everybody for the years of incredible support, kindness, and generosity. It was truly overwhelming, and at times I felt it was much more than I deserved. This includes all of the OpenCollective and Patreon donors and the handful of angel investors who put their faith in this project. Again, I hope the future work with Bluesky helps repay your faith and support.
In particular, I want to thank:
- Peter Wang, for the many years of advice and support
- Matthias Buus, Andrew Osheroff, and Tara Vancil for their collaborative spirit and inspired work
- Everyone in the Beaker and Dat/Hypercore ecosystem for being such a great community
- The Internet Archive for helping organize the decentralized Web community into something greater than its constituent parts (shout out to Wendy Hanamura, love yall)
- Michael Mullins, who donated so much to the project, and who has been an incredibly supportive friend
- Each of the angel investors for giving this risky project a shot
- The Electron team for putting up with my strange feature requests
- My family for not having me put away
I almost hesitate to try to enumerate these special callouts because you all deserve to be named. Needless to say, I'm in your debt and am always available if you want to reach out.
