Charsi Food (d2charsifood.com) seemed to be down. It gave me 502 Bad Gateway.

Any idea what's happening?

Seems to be back up! I found a discord post explaining that he has been going through some tough times.
Just shows that these super niche websites are run by real people and don't just happen without real time and work

I pinged coolshoeshine (the dev) on Discord to see what's up.

I guess they have maintenance operations from time to time like many sites.

Charsifood is sadly down permanently, there was a message on the site briefly saying that all good things must come to an end.

There's https://charsifood.com/ and https://d2charsifood.com/ - you sure you're talking about the latter and not the former?

BTW, anyone tried contacting the author? He has his Discord and Battlenet in profile, but I'm just some rando from the internet, so I don't feel like I'm qualified to ask.

K. I just wonder... why?

I mean - the thing could live on. Even if the author can't maintain it, someone else could? After all, it's probably just a few files on a server, with hardly any upkeep - unless it's so computationally intensive and popular that it starts generating massive costs, but - come on. Community would gladly support a tool like that.

I've asked him if I can host it here because I have the bare metal to do it, but no response from him for weeks.

It is quite computationally intensive btw, here's what he had to say about it when we were discussing performance in the past:

the script to recalc the avg/std dev takes a long time to run since it cycles through every item of the same type on the database

I have cronjobs running every day to recalc those

The different items are staggered, 2 hours apart.

It runs on Postgres not MySQL.
