502 Bad Gateway workaround
Hey gents. I've been out of the game and haven't posted in a while. Just started searching again ran in to the error we all know about. It keeps happening unless I do these things:
Every browser has not worked form me except for Microsoft Edge. This includes chrome, firefox, brave and duckduckgo.
Open Edge and click the three dots in the corner.
Click History and then the trash can icon in the history prompt. Delete the caches.
Then the three dots in the corner again and choose Settings.
From Settings choose Privacy, search and services.
From there choose Security in the middle pane of the screen.
On the security screen, turn off everything. (see attached image).
Close MS Edge.
Next and this is assuming you're on a windows PC, open command prompt. (windows key + r) type CMD hit enter.
Type: ipconfig /flushdns and hit enter.
Open MS Edge again and type: http (NO S): urlreplacement0}.
This has been working like a charm for me but I need to follow the steps of dumping the DNS cache and clearing the browser cache every time or I get the bad gateway message.
I wish there was a way to get this word out outside of this site because I just assumed the site was down for months until I found some people on reddit talking about it.
Spread the word to anyone having problems.
I hope this helps someone.
