Thanks for the patch, but decorative images do not need alt text.

I guess adding a check for the Apple GPU renderername should be fine then?

Looks reasonable to me, but will leave the decision to Pablo as part of the website team.

I am not maintaining the web code and therefore cannot review this. Best to check with Pablo.

Agreed after reading about their differences AVIF is the more modern format.
WebP Converter for Media ironically seems to be the most popular AVIF converter and has AVIF support with their pro plan starting at $5/month allowing 10,000 images per month. There is also Shortpixel which allows up to 100 AVIF image conversions per month for free.

Might be worth to skip webp and go avif immediately, when considering to improve this. https://caniuse.com/avif

Result (in Safari):

I've tested it on a MacBook Pro M1 (2021 I believe) and it seemed to work. But I also got someone mentioning a Mac Mini M1 2020 wasn't picking it up.

Hi,
do you have issues downloading Blender or installing it?

According to Pablo on the YouTube channel it should work now, however for me it still defaults to intel (on Safari on a M1 MacBook Pro).

To check for the OS and OS version you could use some of those sites,
for example to check the ip location or javascript.
You'll get the info like this:

I'll look into it, it's purely a website issue of exposing either one or both.

Thanks for working on this!

If no easy solution exists, maybe intel and silicon version download buttons can be shown both next to each other when visiting from a Mac (instead of one of them being hidden under windows, linux and other versions)?

It's a conscious decision to point the Download Blender button to the latest download available.

Fixed. Thanks for the report!

Closing this 7 year old report, as I believe all the images are now served via https.

Fixed. Thanks for the report!

The timestamp was one second off. It's supposed to link to the section of the starts of Blender and the drive behind.

They have all been fixed now. Thanks!

Fixed. Thanks for the report!

Thanks for the report!

Fixed! blender.chat authentication is provided via Blender ID, so all other fields are not relevant.

The UI has an issue here. Please click on the "Login with Blender ID button". Does not look like it in that context, but it's actually a button.
Will look into making this clearer ASAP.

@Francesco Siddi (fsiddi) Can you check on this please?

Users also reported that this page also have wrong meta tag (showing 2.82) for Discord:
blender.org/download/release/Blender3.0/blender-3.0.0-windows-x64.zip/

Blender ID's privacy policy mentions GA, and currently we don't have capacity to move away from it (albeit we'd like to), so I'd consider this closed, at least for now.

Archiving this because there's been no activity in this ticket for a long time and I'm unable to reproduce it (this seems to be specific to a particular Blender ID account).
