birdnetpi.com might have a certificate or ownership issue as of today (30-Apr-2023)

All,

I just noticed that I can't visit https://birdnetpi.com any longer. I'm pretty sure I've been there over the last few days. (History search says I was successful on 27-Apr-2023), but today I get:

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

The http:// non-ssl version shows Domain Reserved via Strato. Not sure who exactly owns this, but WHOIS reports a change was made yesterday 29-APR-2023.

As I didn't know who needed to know this, if anyone, I thought I'd post here.

If I remember correctly, Patrick bought this domain for general information about BirdNET-PI, but also so that we could have our own installations as a subdomain of birdnetpi.com. If the shutdown is permanent, we who have subdomains there should remove this from our caddyfile.

The website is currently being transfered to a new owner, it will hopefully be up and running soon. I'm not sure if the subdomain DNS records will be preserved.

Is there any update on this? I just recorded a bay breasted warbler and want to share.

The domain points to the github page, now. So, ownership does not seem to be an issue.
However, since the subdomains do not work, I think it would be best to use a dyndns domain, at least as a fallback solution. Maybe in combination with a top level domain.
