Service is down (since the recent labs reboot perhaps?)

[bvibber]

Steps to reproduce:

$ telnet telnet.wmflabs.org

Expected results:

cool ASCII art logo and informative stuff

Actual results:

Trying 208.80.155.160...
telnet: connect to address 208.80.155.160: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

Can confirm, and I wasn't able to restart the server with the steps outlined on the Wikipedia page.

Looks like this has been removed from the README. Maybe it got abused?

Looks like this has been removed from the README.

What has been removed? According to the file's history, it seems to have been unchanged since 2015...

I must have been looking in the wrong place for the service's link!

According to this, telnet.wmflabs.org was shut down in January 2019.
