Dear members, (EDIT: We are trying to find a solution, thanks everyone).

Yesterday, we received unfortunate news from one of our trusted admins stating that the owner of the site intends to shut it down due to insufficient revenue.

At this critical juncture, it is imperative that we brainstorm solutions and suggestions to ensure the continuity of our community. We urge all members to take proactive measures.

Here is the owner's profile link: https://subscene.com/u/2102
Please reach out to him to appeal for a change of decision.

We need a collective effort to prevent the loss of all our hard work with just one click. Already, some members have migrated to other platforms.

I propose the creation of a Discord server, as it is free, versatile, and requires no financial investment. Additionally, Telegram presents itself as a viable alternative.

Best regards,
AMJ_Q8

Sangat sedih kalau benar-benar subscene sampai akan ditutup.
Semoga bisa mendapatkan jalan terbaik.

It hasn't been confirmed by anyone so far. So if it's truly shutting down, an official message from owner would be appreciated. So far everything's just a gossip heard from the grapevine.

I hope we can continue, there is no better alternatives out there

If the news is true, We are walking blindly right into doomsday.
The admin panel should definitely let us know and discuss about it with everyone, so that we can find a solution.

If visitors are declining, please consider to change the domain. It's getting blocked on several countries and people are forced to use unofficial mirror.

I believe there is no alternative. How could someone possibly relocate and preserve a legacy done in ages? This absolute amount of data requires painstaking attention to backup methods (if any at all).

It's not about alternatives! Subscene is the one and the best.
Subscene forever <3

Server

Yeah, me thinking this also. No official info at all.

Are you even in the management team? And where do you get that info from? Can you show the proof? Cuz with that kind of news, don't toying with us unless you have concrete information.

I think the last few days it has been very difficult to open the subscene, maybe because the system is being repaired, but why is it that after it can be opened again, there are rumors that the subscene will be closed like this? I really understand how online forums like this will soon come to an end with their various stories & I continue to hope that bad things don't happen again to one of these online communities.

~May God always bless you all

Guys nothing is final yet, we all want the site to continue so hopefully something can be worked out. But we have to wait and see.

that would be a massive lose to the community and scene of translation. we've built a huge library of content over the years. it would be madness to lose that in an instant. please open the site for donations and let us help it stay up.

Dear Subscene users,

As a fellow user and contributor in the past during the hay-day with friends/admins like rogard and Verdikt, I was sorry to hear this news.
A Subscene user contacted me at OpenSubtitles to provide any assistance that I/we can.

Although we can’t provide any financial assistance, I would like to say I’m willing to help in any other way that I personally can, especially because of my past loyalty and time here.
I personally hope Subscene can continue the way it always has, but if it can’t, you’re all welcome on our site. We already have users from both sites participating back and forth already.

Although, I understand, our chosen favourite site can never be replaced by any other, I will still try my best to accommodate your community over there. If the moment asks for it or if the worse was to happen to Subscene.

That means you can have your own language (major busy languages) section in our dedicated forum (https://forum.opensubtitles.org/) with the same admins/moderators from Subscene who are also welcome to keep their roles and look after their original community members that may follow them from Subscene. You can see we already have separate forum sections for some popular languages already and you’re more than welcome to moderate them as you did here.

Our site is going through a transition at the moment where we will change from the .org version to the new .com version when it is ready (BETA): https://www.opensubtitles.com/en/home

In the new version you will be able to search for subtitles by simply using popular iconic movie phrases and sentences like “Yippee Ki‐Yay” for Die Hard, so exciting times for the new version of the website which will also have 1000’s of other modern features which will also include the ability of translating subtitles into your language, using automated apps for uploading/downloading subtitles, finding subtitles by simply dragging/dropping your video file in the search bar and many other features.
Albeit, some of these features exist already.

Of course I hope all fairs well for Subscene. If it doesn’t, you’re free to choose whatever site meets your needs. For those that choose OS, you’re most welcome. Not only the users, but admins, too.

I wish you all well.
Kind regards
