It's happened to me a few times on the forums, but it's only started in the last couple of days.

This is sometime happening to me too!

Happened to me a couple times. I suspect this may be a result of the new network provider Scratch is using.

Hi everyone,

We are migrating some files from one server to the other which is causing the 504s . Hopefully, It will go away once we are done..

I haven't had one today and I've been using scratch for 4 hours now. My WiFi connection isn't as good as yours though.

This happens to me periodically.

It's definitely something with the scratch servers, not users or their ISPs.

Agreed. It's only a minor disruption and will soon go away.

Me too. I got 504 error on several hours, and I don't understand saying “nginx”

I agree

Nginx is server software

I had seen the same topic in this page https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/106978/
There is a good answer there.

This was fixed a while ago.
