Recovering Past Projects From Thimble

Good evening. I was direct messaging you all in order to gain some insight on old Thimble projects. I've recently started college, I've been learning Python, and I've already started helping those, with other majors specifically business, who need assistance with creating websites using HTML. Assisting these students would be even more accomplishable if I had these past projects. Unfortunately, I don’t remember being informed about the shutting down of Thimble. Therefore, I wasn’t able to export my past projects to Glitch such as many other users. I’ve already created two Glitch accounts in order to see if it’s still possible to transfer information, but you all seem to have no form of direct customer service contact. Additionally, I've sent sent an email and direct message to Mozilla but received no response. I've been trying to recover my projects for the past two days and a while ago, so it would be greatly appreciated if I can please still recover my past projects! Thanks!

In case you decide to recreate your projects from scratch, it will go much faster the second time and will be better organized.This has the advantage of character building among other things such as practice, etc. I share your frustration.
