They tout excellent app UX but the website has a lot of rough edges visually.
Again, not discounting their work. I'm still going to install and try out, but initial impressions matter.
I believe they are still a team of one, and have focused on app progress and efficiency at the expense of bugs & loose ends that would typically be handled in a larger organization with dedicated teams for that sort of thing. I bet they would
Personally I find it charming. That is until I run into a security issue.
I can't speak for Flowx though.
So do I spend hours looking for a fix, look into replacing it with a static pages site (I'm thinking Hugo) or just go back to porting Flowx to Apple :-)

Setting DEBUG = False doesn't cause in Internal Server Issue. The issue is caused by something else, having DEBUG = True just means Django will return a detailed error page, instead of a generic 500 error page.
IIRC, DEBUG = True also used to leak memory, which doesn't matter so much for local development, where it's intended to be used.
I want to try static page generators (Hugo) instead since they are easier to maintain. So it's a prioritization question - do I spend time fixing this bug or spend the time on migrating.
imho, static pages site is the best way to simplify. My personal favorite is hexo.io, but ultimately pick anything that gets the job done.
I'm not a fan of website - they have become complex. I'm currently looking into static pages as a replacement.
That said, Flowx has many moving parts: app development, data servers, data processing, support, forum, website, and others. My main focus is app development and probably the least focus is the website.
