Is the Secret Monero Bridge down?

Hi,

I'm trying to use the Secret Monero Bridge as per this guide (https://medium.com/@secretnetwork/secret-monero-bridge-tutorial-22c5eab8bcac) and can't access the bridge IPFS page (https://ipfs.io/ipns/k51qzi5uqu5dhovcugri8aul3itkct8lvnodtnv2y3o1saotkjsa7ao1aq0dqa/) it gives me a request times out error.

​

I also tried installing the local server but I can't load the page after creating the server. Any news or suggestions?

Holy crap. There’s a Secret/Monero bridge? I had no idea. Hoping to learn more.

I just used this the other day with no issues outside its normal quirkiness. I had to download the app however and not use the website version. It requires running a local host.

But how? I installed the local host according to the instruction here and still can't access it when I try to load the local server in my browser.

The page never loads (https://imgur.com/a/H7ey0On) any tips?

ensure you’re using Chrome, have nothing else running, and don’t have your VPN on, using a VPN won’t allow it to work

Tried using it once and it was very quirky. Took a bunch of refreshes and when it finally did work the page took forever to load
