Hi @Zeete, thanks for taking the time to report this and welcome to Wikimedia Phabricator!

I reported this on WP:DYK talk page

I assume that is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Did_you_know#DYKStats_tool

The current situation is intentional: https://tools.wmflabs.org/dykstats/ is listed on https://tools.wmflabs.org/trusty-tools/

Nobody has yet migrated dykstats to a supported operating system: dykstats was still running on a machine using an operating system which saw its end of life (no security fixes anymore) in April 2019. See https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Trusty_deprecation and https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Toolforge_Trusty_deprecation for more information what needs to be done.

Tool now seems to be working.
