Webview shows "took too long to respond." with the HTML, CSS, JS template, without any modification

Bug description:
I am creating a new HTML, CSS, JS project. Without changing a single file, the Webview takes a while and then shows a sad face which, upon hover, claims: xx351e-fff3-43bd-933a-6bcbac6c6057.id.repl.co took too long to respond.

Expected vs Current Behavior:
The Webview should show the most basic: “Hello world” html content

Steps to reproduce:
Create an empty project based on the HTML, CSS, JS template, see the problem.

This appears to be “region” based. I’m in Ecuador, South America, and there is no way around this issue. It happens with two local ISP providers. If I connect a VPN, things work as expected. Maybe you are blocking incoming traffic from certain regions / IPs?

According to @QwertyQwerty88 , Replit’s hosting is currently having issues.
