Dead documentation pages #94

I've been on a spree with updating the docs and while doing so, I've run into several pages that I believe to belong to plugins/features that are no longer supported by either Solar2D and/or the other party.

Before I start removing such pages, I wanted to double check that these pages are indeed "dead":

  • Airpush: Seems like a very old plugin that has references to Starter, Pro and Enterprise tiers. Their website, airpush.com, also seems to be down and the company doesn't have any activity since 2016. They may be known these days as Airnow Media, but it seems unlikely that the plugin or service works, or am I wrong?
  • FusePowered: The company is defunct and surely their service is dead with them?
  • Hockey/HockeyApp: The listed URL: http://hockeyapp.net/ redirects to https://appcenter.ms/, i.e. the original company has been acquired by Microsoft. Is the plugin active anymore?
  • MediaBrix: May have once been an ad provider, but now they seem to just be a Dutch web marketing business that does SEO, etc. See: https://www.mediabrix.com/
  • Ouya: The company was acquired by Razer, which ended the platform in 2019.
  • PeanutLabs: Their last Twitter post was in 2017, last blog post in 2016. The company seems to be dead.
  • Gamehouse Promotion Network: The company seems to be dead too. If you go to their page, https://partners.gamehouse.com/app-promotion-and-app-monetization/, and try to log in, sign up, get started, etc. then nothing works.
  • Any references to Windows Phone (WP): Windows Phones, and by extension CoronaCards for WP, are all dead and buried, and can be removed, right?
  • rcssdk: A Rovio SDK? Seems to just be empty without any functionality, something was supposed to happen but nothing did.
  • RevMob: Last Twitter post in 2017. Their website doesn't work. Seems to be another dead and buried company?
  • TrialPay: They were acquired by Visa in 2015 and their site no longer exists.
  • apsalar: They were acquired by Singular. Does their plugin still work or is it dead?

Are there some documentation pages that I missed? Are some of these still fully functional and shouldn't be removed?

Some of them are delisted from the plugins page but they still show up in search results. When I was updating the docs, I saw some of those, removed some references but didn't know if I should remove those pages entirely. IMO, they should be removed to avoid confusion.
