Broken & outdated links on emulationstation.org

Open nfriedly opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hi, I noticed a few issues on emulationstation.org:

  • The "RetroPie" Project link on the home page goes to https://blog.petrockblock.com/retropie/ - it should now go to https://retropie.org.uk/
  • The "Send us an email!" link goes to mailto:/dev/null - lol - you should probably just remove that section if you don't want to deal with spam.
  • The "Alec Lofquist" link in the footer goes to https://www.aloshi.com/ which gets a scary warning because the SSL cert is only for aloshi.com, emulationstation.org, and wkrs.aloshi.com (no www) - the link in the FAQ works, though.
  • The "Nils Bonenberger" link in the footer goes to https://blog.nilsbyte.de/ which gets a similar warning, but then goes to a 404 page once you accept that. The FAQ link goes directly to the 404 page.

I think I also got a SSL error on my phone for emulationstation.org, but I can't recreate it now, so maybe I just typo'd something there.

Finally, the reason I even came to the website and started clicking around is because I saw a youtube comment that said your patreon didn't have very many supporters or much income, and I was looking for the link to it - do you have a patreon? If so, then it's kind of hard to find, and if not, then maybe someone is impersonating you..?

The EmulationStation project has been discontinued for many years, not sure you are on the right place
