Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

My vote goes to Scott Hutchison, the lead singer of the band frightened rabbit. He wrote a song called "floating in the forth" in 2008 about committing suicide by jumping off the forth road bridge in Scotland. In 2018 he killed himself by jumping off the forth road bridge.

Ian Curtis, lead singer and songwriter of Joy Division, May18, 1980. For years I would play some of their music every day. No song quite like "The Eternal" from their Closer album.
I'd have to say Leslie Cheung. Gay icon, lead actor in my favourite film of all time (Farewell My Concubine). He was pretty influential in my choice to start my PhD research in representations of LGBT identity in Chinese cinema. It's a shame I'll never get to complete my research, at one point it was such a huge passion project of mine. Hopefully someone else will be able to pick up where I left off!
