@_elena@mastodon.social yes, I noticed the (probably only temporary) redirect to wsocial.news, too. They must have set it only today in the afternoon, as confirms https://web.archive.org/web/20260506062956/https://wsocial.eu/public/signup, too.
More things I noticed:
1) they advertise with random Bluesky posts as one from Annalena Baerbock, also the "topic chart" refers to Bluesky, while some very first WSocial server posts exist.
2) they explicitly advertise an article about W Social from the now pro-Russian, far-right German newspaper "Berliner Zeitung".

@_elena@mastodon.social 3) they indeed list the (current!) German Federal Government's Data Protection Commissioner Louisa Specht-Riemenschneider as part of their team 😏 - that's shady AF.
