[Oranod](https://matrix.to/#/@orandon:ansible.im) contributed

> The Ansible community team at Red Hat has completed migration of the `docs.ansible.com` subdomain to Read the Docs (RTD) hosting. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the new look and feel for the docs landing pages and make use of the great Read the Docs features like cross-project search.

> It seems like everything with the migration went smoothly. We haven’t heard any reports of 404s or missing content. However if you do notice anything awry then please let us know on the [forum](https://forum.ansible.com/t/we-re-moving-to-read-the-docs/43519) or by opening an issue in the new [docsite repo](https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-docsite).
