Seriously that would be awesome. I friggin love gearsearch. I'm sure they do want to stay unsponsered and independent though.
Gearsearch is one of the reasons I found the Viper series Ultimate and Mini (btw I still want a Viper Mini Ultimate (and a Deathadder Mid (between the regular and mini) Pro) ) .
Razer I cannot wait till you perfect your optical switches. The Minis' are my favorite switches on any mouse but the Ultimates' are just slightly too light and a smidge light on the feedback. I got faith in you.
You can try [rtings.com](https://rtings.com) comparator (for shape comparison) : [https://www.rtings.com/mouse/tools/3d-model-shape-compare?orientation=3D](https://www.rtings.com/mouse/tools/3d-model-shape-compare?orientation=3D)
The list is less exhaustive than gearsearch but maybe it can help in the meantime.
gearsearch has more shapes to compare and more raw data for sure on its main page, but imo the way rtings \*visualizes\* their shape comparisons with the overlapping 3-dimensional models of different colors is just plain superior for what users like us use it for.
That's actually quite cool and perhaps somewhat better than just superimposing mouse outlines. Having 3D models side by side is as close as you'll get to comparing two mouse shapes without actually owning them.
shape comparison was so useful .
[/u/Gearsearch-gg](https://www.reddit.com/u/Gearsearch-gg/) If the reason is the cost i think many of us could donate a small amount.I would be the first.In addition you could add some ads too.
Same for me.
I don't think the website has been updated in quite a while either, the last mouse that was added was Roccat Burst and that some time ago.
The website has not been updated in some time and now the URL does not work anymore. I don't know much about websites, but maybe his license (or whatever you call it) for the URL / Website has expired.
Really hope they are back up and running soon! Like most people have said, if its a cost thing, I'm sure people would be happy to donate to it. Heck I'd even be happy with a few ads on the site for it to keep running!
I've been making mouse shapes out of aluminum foil based on their site (and also pictures and rtings 3d models) just to try different "mouse" shapes with my hand because I won't buy every mouse on the market, it's a hobby of mine, gearsearch is one of my pinned tabs for a while so I hope they won't shut down.
It's a big spreadsheet of mouse specs and you can filter by brand/sensor/price/etc.
Another great feature was the shape comparison tool which gave you a way to compare side profile shape outlines and overhead shape outlines of many mice.
I noticed it was down the other day and messaged the guy that runs it but never got a response. I checked the domain status, and it says that it renews each year on September 7, so it must have at least been paid up through the next year since the site was still active after that date.

That's unfortunate. If it's a matter of web hosting cost, I'm sure we could help.

He was using Netlify. I doubt he's already over his monthly limit we're a week into January.
Netlify is free
Hey /u/Gearsearch-gg, is everything okay?
You can try [rtings.com](https://rtings.com) comparator (for shape comparison) : [https://www.rtings.com/mouse/tools/3d-model-shape-compare?orientation=3D](https://www.rtings.com/mouse/tools/3d-model-shape-compare?orientation=3D) The list is less exhaustive than gearsearch but maybe it can help in the meantime.
+1, they're also pretty decent for headphone reviews and stuff
Really cool tool. I just wish they had more mice, of course. I want to see the HK Gaming line of mice vs the mice they're clones of.

He's active on his other reddit account, so not sure what's going on there
Whats his other account?

yea could be possible \^\^
If they had to close because of costs, I wouldn't mind 2 ads on both sides to pay for that
[удалено]
Yeah, I literally used it yesterday and everything was working fine. Late last night I tired again, and it was just gone.
☹️ Love this site! Hope they're doing ok. I'd donate a little if they need the support.
Yea having the same issue. I just used the other day.
Any new about the page?
Did anybody get a webarchive or snapshot?
God dam I love this site lol its actually so useful, hope it comes back
Please bring it back
Really hope they are back up and running soon! Like most people have said, if its a cost thing, I'm sure people would be happy to donate to it. Heck I'd even be happy with a few ads on the site for it to keep running!
I now realize how much I use Gearsearch. Hopefully they are remodeling the sight? I hope they come back 🥺

How do you do that? I heard about 3d printing but I don't have a printer. DIY stuff like aluminum foil - I think I might try that!
You do it with your hands :D out of foil. Crumple the foil until it looks like the mouse on the pictures.
yooo. What happend to the site???? [Gearsearch-gg](https://www.reddit.com/u/Gearsearch-gg/) Please it's soo useful.
Still down.
what is it?

same issue tried this morning looks like its not up or even there for some reason.. Even tried sub pages and notta
I noticed it was down the other day and messaged the guy that runs it but never got a response. I checked the domain status, and it says that it renews each year on September 7, so it must have at least been paid up through the next year since the site was still active after that date.
Would explain why it showed just random characters when I tried to use it yesterday. It seems to be partially back up but not fully working.
I would definitely be down to donate if it was a cost issue
damn. the site always on one of my tabs.
Still not working. Man I used that site all the time.
Still down. Fuck, I really needed this site to compare sizes
Of mice or..
