we've accumulated a bunch of broken links to defunct services, which makes docs website pretty bad experience. this pr is cleaning up (removing dead links, updating recommendations to still active services)

cc @mishmosh @bumblefudge @2color for sanity check -- im merging this to unblock Fleek migration docs, but feel free to PR if i overstepped on anything here.
