new TMC access problems solved with VPN 15th of August

I have been having problems accessing TMC since yesterday. That has not happened before. When I tried with a VPN access was immediate. Has there been a policy change to restrict access from certain countries?

I am getting HTTP 503 errors since this morning from one my windows desktop that I use everyday. Works fine on my iPhone that is on the same LAN connected to the same Wifi.

If you have a VPN try that. It works for me.

Without VPN I can access on my iPhone but not on an iPad or desktop. All three are on the same network.
This IS odd.

Seems to be back to normal now but many people were unable to connect while others had no issue.

No access all day from pc, phone and sites used to check for downtime (so not my connection or even country)

It's working now (obviously) but it was out all morning for me until about an hour ago. Always a 503 error, not even a Cloudflare proxy error page which it should have been if the server was down. So it might have been something upstream of Cloudflare or a network routing problem with CF and not at all related to TMC. Who knows, it's over.

I couldn't access the site all morning, just a blank screen. What the heck happened?! TMC should have a Discord especially for situations like these.

Yes, I was hoping a banner on the home page would inform users of a problem, but there was none.

Same for me all morning just a blank screen on all my devices.
