I am a developer with a passion for testing. I've been coding for 14 years and I want to share my experience and learnings with other developers to help them write better software.
Yes you are correct - the Deno Land registry is now not using the old database.json file. In fact the file was deleted completely 3 days ago by the core team in this PR --> github.com/denoland/deno_website2/...
If you had a module previously on the registry using the database.json file then it should still be available provided it had a tagged version. I believe modules without tags / versions which were on the registry will be removed within the next 30 days if a new version is not published using the webhook approach - so it is advised you migrate modules to using the webhook asap! See below for an example warning message from the registry:
The official (and afaik only) way to now upload modules to the Deno Land registry is via webhooks as per this article (and instructions also available on the deno.land/x page itself).

Am I right in thinking then the Deno Land registry is no longer using that JSON config file?
