A sad day for the competitive programming community, one of the most famous coding competitions is getting discontinued after 20 years. The final edition will be held on April 15,2023.

I was looking forward to it :( Last year when I was a beginner in CP, and did not perform well in the kickstart and codejam competitions. Over the past year, I had so much fun with CP and it is one of my hobbies. I have improved my way up till Expert rank in codeforces and was looking forward to participate again to see improvements in my kickstart/codejam performances, but seems like its finished :(
