I had been getting that error too, on and off, seems to be on their end. they did upgrade the server hardware recently so maybe something is being a bit dodgy since then here's a post about it
I can't read that post - "bad gateway error" :-(
aw noo, it's on the lemmy.ml instance 🥴 just the info post about their server upgrade
I had same issue yesterday, it came back after a few mins, although it did work straight away if used a vpn
I really don't want to have to mess with a VPN and honestly don't think I should have to
Not saying that at all & i agree. Just an observation. it's early days & problems are getting fixed, waiting a small while seems to fix most things at the moment, it's already better than a couple of days ago for me
I could be wrong but It was sounding like lemmy.ml has been getting overloaded
From what i understand it may be a problem with ipv6. I have seen others sat that disabling ipv6 works and others say using a vpn works.
Lemmy.ml is on and off today, I believe it is continuously being overloaded by users, as well as them migrating to a better server to support people. For now, just assume that the server is overloaded if you cannot access it.
Thanks, I will try again when I get up in the morning
