I’m currently facing issues with Penpot, I was designing on the canvas but it lag and stopped working for no reason, and when I refresh or reload the browser, it is saying bad gateways… I have to reverse back and refresh again, I also closed the tab to login into penpot again but still the same response, I can login with GitHub or my Gmail… I tried using another browser, saying the same thing…

Is Penpot under maintenance or is something qrong

Facing the same issue now. My team is facing some issues with connecting the MCP and for me, the mcp is getting disconnected frequently. Love to use it but feels unstable sometimes.
