The meta front page failed to load for me just now - first visit today - was stuck on the animated dots. I opened a second tab which did load OK. But just in case it’s an important case, here’s what I saw in the console of the first tab: The FetchEvent for "https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/assets/start-discourse-7c0f5f4daf3c942b7b6ecfe8e62e2e5a0f6555924859cf055314c0df3d617353.br.js" resulted in a network error response: the promise was rejected.

[image] Ed S: resulted in a network error Seems like your Internet might have been having issues to me, but I’m not certain.

This solution can be resolved by closing the tab out or reopening it again, or reloading the page.
