in the coming days, i’m going to shut down the node.moneroworld service.

I posted the issue 2 days ago, and I’ve thought about what was said, and yeah its time that public remote node listings should probably be retired.

if you really need to use a remote node, it should really be someones node you trust, and it should ideally be your remote node. And at this point, you really shouldn’t need a public remote node. The Monero GUI is easier than ever to run, and mobile wallet providers are doing a good job of providing RPC services to their clients. And if you can’t store between 60G and 200G on your own computer, it’s time to upgrade.

I’ll keep my ports open for a bit longer, but the domain won’t resolve to any IP addresses relatively soon.

In addition, simple and bootstrap mode should be deprecated in the GUI, along with the --public-node flag.
