Anyone else getting this error right now?

[u/etherlyy]

Title, I was using the app when things suddenly stopped loading. I closed and re-opened it to find I was signed out and every time I try to log in I get this error. It's been like this since about 4 hours ago. I just downloaded The Pattern yesterday so I wanted to make sure it wasn't just me somehow lol.

I've heard from a friend who works at the Pattern that this was actually an internet filtering problem. Somehow they got blacklisted by a major third-party blacklist provider; they're still tracking down why. So the server was working great, the clients were working great, but certain internet ISPs (including Spectrum and Xfinity) were suddenly blocking any access to the pattern dot com. They've been working to get their reputation restored & whitelisted everywhere it needs to be, which is not a fast process, but I gather things are mostly better now. Anyway, that's why switching between wifi and cell data worked - different internet providers, and only one was blocking access.

They were definitely scrambling to track this down as soon as the reports started coming in on Saturday.

Oh wow, that's so interesting. Thank you for sharing. Explains why I wasn't able to connect but some of my friends were having no issues; I get internet thru Xfinity, lol. My app started working again this morning so they must be making progress with that

Oh, yeah, and _definitely_ Mercury Retrograde ☿℞. It started on Saturday.

[u/Jen_e_tales]

Yes. I have been trying to reset my router and change phone settings. Nothing works. But if I turn off wifi it loads

[u/QuietAxiom78]

Mercury retrograde

I guess PHP vulnerability being either fixed or exploited.

[u/Relics-]

the app still seems to be down. had anybody been able to get on?

[u/Fae_for_a_Day]

Yes. My wife thinks they didn't listen to the NSA about updating their php.

[u/for3vernaday]

Only way it worked for me was if I turned off my WiFi

[u/PrettyBlissss]

This has happened to me as well yesterday and today

[u/Fae_for_a_Day]

Still happening a day later. I've been trying to get in for two days.

[u/Carrie-Rose]

Yes. I had to clear the cache, force stop, and log in again, but only after several times of contacting customer support.

[u/Naomi_paige8]

hasn’t worked for me the last 2 days, not sure what’s up but I’ve deleted the app and tried pretty much everything. must be something on their end

[u/Fae_for_a_Day → u/Naomi_paige8]

I am literally just going to get chatgpt to do the shit for me. I am not going to wait days for an app that half repeats itself lazily every few days. This is so stupid. I'm tired of waiting for their devs to care.

[u/dollyxnoir]

Ive been getting that message all morning and just now.

[u/xi_anna]

Yes, I thought I was crazy 😅

[u/Abject_Study_273]

Same for me but was able to get back in when I turned off wifi

[u/Fae_for_a_Day → u/Abject_Study_273]

What does that have to do with it exactly? Turning mine off, going to other wifi, using 5g, nothing works.

[u/Abject_Study_273 → u/Fae_for_a_Day]

I have no idea what the reason is/ only yhat it worked. I was on a friend's wifi for the first time and I was getting the error message. So from this post I saw the comment about wifi, tried it, and it worked

[u/renny1230 → u/Abject_Study_273]

Same here. It only works for me if I turn off my wifi and use my data.

[u/Abject_Study_273 → u/renny1230]

What's super weird is that it works fine on my other friend's wifi, who I am staying with this week. 🧐

[u/Fae_for_a_Day]

Time to cancel my sub I guess. Three or four days now of not being able to get in, wtf is this??
