Hi all,
Gutenberg keeps giving me a 504 Gateway Error every time I try to get to any of their books via the SE website or from Gutenberg itself. I'm not really sure what's wrong...

I noticed a similar issue. You will just have to wait until their servers are stable again.

I had that problem for several hours last night, although I didn’t have any problems a few minutes ago. It’s a good bet it’s AI scrapers flooding their servers; that’s happening at all kinds of non-profit sites, who don’t have the infrastructure (or expertise) to stop them.
