noticed Noctua Sky was new

New and improved. I had a quick look at Noctua Sky to check some star names. Actually, when I first tried to visit the site the server through a 404 error. I stripped the filename from the URL and it worked.

Don't use: https://noctuasky.com/planetarium.html

I noticed some interface changes right away. Like the separate date and time buttons at the bottom-right. (The Time control is remarkably useful with a 24 clock!) Looked like there was better location-detection routines. The menu was restructured. Search bar immediately available at the top of the screen.

Curiously the News page was not updated so I don't know what else has changed or what motivated the change.
