History
GDPSFH initially started as (and still is) a small hobby project by MathieuAR in 2020.
People could create a GDPS through his Discord Bot,
which handled configuration and creation of the game and server files through a few scripts.
With the help of a few people, the project grew and became more popular, especially in some Russian communities.
After some up and downs, the project was eventually shut down shortly before 2023 due to lack of time and motivation.
The project was brought back up a few months later, now replacing the Discord Bot with a web panel.
This allowed development to be easier, as the need of managing configuration was no longer handled by the bot.
Despite that GDPSFH is still in its early stages, it is one of the popular GDPS hosting services out there,
with over 10600 GDPSs created and over 20800 users registered today. Historically, before the Discord Bot was taken off,
the service has been used by over ~20000 users and had a record of 9800 GDPSs hosted at the same time.
Leaders and Administrators
MathieuAR
Founder, Developer
Mathieu is the host of GDPSFH, having developed the initial Discord Bot and the current web panel.
Nearly all of the code for GDPSFH is written by him.
Despite being often busy with his job, he still manages to keep the service up and running even in critical situations.
As of now, he still pays for the server mostly out of his own pocket.
Rya
Co-Leader, Developer, GDPS Expert
Rya is the co-owner of GDPSFH, having helped Mathieu with the initial Discord Bot and the current web panel.
He started out by providing help for people to setup GDOpenServer (a GMDPrivateServer fork by Rya and more, now archived).
With his knowledge of GDPSs, he quickly became a moderator and eventually a co-owner as he built trust with Mathieu.
Today he is responsible keeping the service up and continuing the development of the frontend part.
MegaSa1nt
Server-Administrator, Developer, GDPS Expert
MegaSa1nt is a trusted staff of the GDPSFH team, who made the GMDPrivateServer fork that adds a ton of functionality and customizability to many GDPSs that we know today.
At the moment, he is working on a complete rewrite of the GDPS backend, cleaning up the near decade-old mess that was once intended to be a fun project
to be properly used in high quality Geometry Dash Private Servers.
