Kemono down

It happens. I was just checking it, seemed OK, had a number of new updates, when it suddenly went down. It has happened before.

It's not cheap to keep a high-traffic website such as this. The maintainer estimates it will cost about one thousand dollars PER MONTH, and therefore they will likely need to resort to ads. But they are also offering a lifetime no-ads subscription for a one-time donation of... I can't look it up right now since the site is down, but it's not an unreasonable amount.
 
Seems to be an issue with the domain.

One interesting thing about pawchive...
I just set gallery-dl to download a long-time Patreon artist (yes, gallery-dl has been updated and now supports pawchive) and it stopped. EXACTLY. at. the. end. of. the. tenth. page.
My guess is that to keep storage and bandwidth reasonable the pawchive crawler was set up to stop downloading from Patreon at that point. Not a problem if you are looking for the newer things.
