I am not getting this error on neither Chrome or Firefox.

What Firefox version are you using?
Anything specific about your setup?

Your connection is not secure
The website tried to negotiate an inadequate level of security.
tour.dlang.org uses security technology that is outdated and
vulnerable to attack. An attacker could easily reveal
information which you thought to be safe. The website
administrator will need to fix the server first before you can
visit the site.

Have tried going to the http version but your server (or my
browser) seems to be setup to auto-redrect to the https version.
Yes, Google downranks websites which don't redirect by default to
HTTPS.
Please excuse this post if this is a known issue.
FYI for the future: you can report issues here:

Now if I could just find a diagram of the exception tree in
phobos. I'm trying to throw an exception when all possible
environment variables my program could use to find the current
account's home directory are not present but can't figure out
which one would be appropriate.
There's no complex exception hierarchy.
You can easily get a list of all exceptions in Phobos, e.g.
grep -r ": Exception" *
Why don't you create your own exception?
```
import std.exception;
class InputException : Exception
{
///
mixin basicExceptionCtors;
}
...
throw new InputException("Environment variable " ~ s ~ " isn't
set.");
```
