Message about scheduled maintenance

When I try to go to L19 I get a message saying that L19 is undergoing maintenance and will be back soon. However, when I click on "new posts" I get right to the listing of posts and I have been able to post. What's going on?

Type lifein19x19.com manually in the browser for testing if you like to.

For me, "View unread posts" doesn't work.

For me an old bookmark did not work but a new one and manually did. Unread posts work also.

Among the "view" options, only View active topics does not work for me now.

FAQ does not work, either.

Hm - that's super-strange. I did put the site in maintenance mode last week for a few hours, but I brought it back the same day. I temporarily redirected the DNS to a static CDN maintenance page while I did that, and it seems like for some people that record got cached and that's why you're still seeing the old maintenance page.

Not really sure why your browser would do that - does clearing the cache help?

I didn't do anything on my browser, but for some reason everything works fine now.

Up date: Typing the address into my browser (Firefox) manually gives the same message. I looked at it carefully and the message is dated November 22, 2019.

So strange. If you hit Shift+F5 when you see that message (this causes a hard refresh in your browser which should discard the cached DNS entry), what happens?

This is happening again.
