RAWPEDIA site 'can't be reached.'

Is this the right category to ask: Where has RawPedia gone? Whenever I google it or click the RT question mark at bottom left of editor, all I ever get is ‘This site can’t be reached.’ Anyone else getting this? Thanks.

Recategorized it to software, rawtherapee. Critique is for having your work criticized.

Thanks.

Rawpedia is down for a few weeks actually.

OK. Thanks again. Do you know a reason? Maybe an update, or…?

No idea, quick Google search returned only past outages.

Thanks again. Appreciate your time.

See: Is RawPedia Down?

The link provided in the last comment works for me (just tried it).

I don’t think the pixls.us version will be very new…

Maybe its time for rawtherapee.org?

It’s from May 2024, so not useless especially for beginners.

It is unowned, how cheap can they be? Could it be directed to point to a gihub_pages version of the site? Owner opinions? @Morgan_Hardwood @Lawrence37 @patdavid

Yes, I mean we register it and start using it for rawtherapew. Gabor didn’t want to give up the domain or hosting as I understand it, which is totally fine, but this isn’t the first problem with that host and the people who are around now have no recourse when something goes wrong on that host.

Not that we don’t have our own issues, but we have people that are around, at the very least.

Out of curiosity, how is pixls.us related to RawTherapee? Some comments sound like they are separate things, but there seem to be a lot of people in common?

The whole photography Foss community is pretty small.

Pixls.us is the official support forum for RT.

Pixls.us also hosts a bunch of stuff for darktable and siril and other projects, but not RT. We try and do things for projects and run services so they can keep programming.

pixls.us is sort of a hub of information for RawTherapee, as well as other open source photo editors. From what I understand, there is a somewhat loose agreement for pixls.us to be the ‘official’ outlet. Although, technically, I suppose anyone can start up a website and host the same thing in an unofficial capacity.
