Seems each NetHack release it gets harder and harder :)

But I since we are in May I would guess it will be part of junethack:

https://junethack.net/

I cannot get into hardfought.org right now, but nethack.alt seems to be available. I can see alt.org is using nethack 3.6.7

looking forward to giving v5 a try.

There was some bot DOS attack on hardfought, so they had to get behind cloudflare IIRC but that made having the same domain for somehow problematic.

And yes, it will be part of Junethack. 3.7 already was so it's actually just changing version numbers. :)
