The soviet union domain seems to suggest the original maintainer has stepped down and could not vouch for the software anymore?

 

Soft 98 is an Iranian software distribution site, that has stood up after sanction had crippled the ability of the normal people and businesses in Iran from getting access to important software from the outside world.

As the Iranian government threatens to cut off from the world this rich archive of software is vulnerable to wiped from the internet. It is one of the most widely diverse software pool that's trusted I have ever seen.

Is there anyway to pool together resources to save the software's of this site, which to me is like The Software Library of Alexandria from permanent cyberspace loss.

 

It's in the megathread, but FMHY isn't listing them. So, what's the site's assessment?

Yeah, it does. But, in case it's blocked on OP's network.
