Can’t open the page either. I guess that happens to code free programming

Ha Ha. We were getting a traffic spike through this, which caused the issue. But Bubble has this feature where you can add more "units" to your overall app capacity to handle increased traffic, which we did. Enjoy!

Your page doesn't render without JS enabled, including JS from hard-to-trust cloudfront.net domains, and also doesn't render in Firefox's reader mode.

Thanks for flagging. This is helpful for us to assess

I have no paranoid browser settings (i.e. JS still is enabled), only an ad blocker, and yet all I get is

Even from sites with ad blocker blocker have I ever seen such a failure to even load the page at all.

Thanks for flagging

so, you can only run Bubble stuff on their systems? That means it isn't yours at all. What happens when they go bust? what about your apps then?

From bubble.is/faq :

"Finally, we want to make sure you feel secure about building on the Bubble platform, so, although we plan to be around for a very long time, here's our guarantee: if we ever for some reason have to close down shop, we will release the Bubble source code under an open-source license so that you can set up your own Bubble server and keep your app running."
