Anyone else notice that openbsd.app has shown (Fri Mar 20 00:01:12 2026) and searches in current contain old versions. For instance if you're running current search foot and you'll see it's newer than on this site. If you know who runs the site can you let them know. #OpenBSD

Yes, I know

It's Solene Rapenne. https://dataswamp.org/~solene/ -
When I was looking for an easy way to browse and search for OpenBSD packages I noticed that openbsd.app for had that older date too.
I ended up using https://ports.to for my searches, is that a good alternative?

@justine I'll take a look here pretty soon

Originally, openbsd.app was mainly for โcurrentโ; now, there is a stable (default) branch versus 'current'.
It seems ports.to is about the stable version.

I use https://openports.pl/ which I believe is run by Marc Espie (
espie@, developer behind OpenBSD ports) and is the web frontend for a tool that ships as part of the OpenBSD ports infrastructure (similar to Git web). -
I'm really sorry, because I'm confusing:
- openports.pl is the Solene's project. (solene@, formerly a developer on the OpenBSD project)
- openbsd.app is made by @qbit@mammothcirc.us; (thanks to you to repair-it!)
