Trying to connect to http://docs.go-mono.com/ results in the browser trying to load the page for a few minutes, then timing out.

This happened since yesterday at least.

Yes we had to turn it off, but you can try https://web.archive.org/web/20240303201523/http://docs.go-mono.com/ in case you're blocked.

I'm curious which pages you need? We should migrate those.

The base class library documentation. Ideally I'd have it offline but I don't know of a way to do so...

I'd recommend using https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/?view=netframework-4.7 instead, the BCL docs on the old mono docs site are like 15 years old.

If you go to a namespace like e.g. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system?view=netframework-4.7 there's also a "Download PDF" link in the table of contents.

I have some QuickDoc/OnlineHelp functionality in Rider, which relies on docs.go-mono.com. I wonder, is there a chance that it would be running again or I should better switch to dotnet api doc?

We won't be bringing it back, also see https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/21796.
