great product. congrats on the launch

We're considering both, but mainly listening to the "community voice" right now :)

Linking to data on other sites (including archive.org) seems like a better way to go, than pulling everything in (as you mentioned, storage reqs become a challenge fairly quickly)

Absolutely - we're adding the rest of the filters next. Just had to cut scope in order to launch in shorter time

That is an awesome project!

they do have their links all over the site, so yes. Just likely not enough to justify keeping the entire site/team running it.

I wish I saw this in 2026!

it's already on Archive.org https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/11zucov/dprevi...

but it's super slow and hard for the general public to access, and many JS features won't work.

That's why we're linking to reviews for now, instead of pulling them in.

One way is to summarize DPR member reviews with GPT4 and keep just the summary / score up.

Ultimately we want to make an awesome review tool on top of this data and start collecting original reviews.

We really had to step on the gas with this one. There has been just so much reverberations in the photo community that it became clear that it needs to be done (and quick).

This is a great effort! But yes, manual adding is slow, so the way is likely to crowdsource/automate it.

Exactly! :) The lenses are coming next, but if there are requests for specific categories of things that would be interesting, we're all ears!

We're thinking gadgets, cars, music equipment would be a good start.

I'm actually proposing that we do!
