R help - Mar 2023 - web address for R-project

I got the link cran.nexr.com from a person who claimed that it is the 
home of R-project, and indeed, it looks right.

But it doesn't feel right, so I wonder what is going on. Is it someone's
mirror (authorized) of R-project?

Thanks, G?ran

It's not currently in the official list of mirrors [*], but anyone can
create a CRAN mirror for their own needs as long as they don't overload
the CRAN master site: https://cran.r-project.org/mirror-howto.html

NexR call themselves a "total data service company" and have published
an R interface for Apache Hive [**], so it shouldn't be too surprising
that they have a local CRAN mirror.

The home of R project is at https://r-project.org/. If you don't want
to trust a J. Random Hacker from the Internet to give you the right
address, run citation() in an R prompt.
