Current Behavior
When I go to https://monkeytype.com/, it loads for about 30 seconds and then many 522 errors pop up. Something related with Cloudfare, I suppose.
It started about week ago. I reproduced it on both firefox and chrome in incognito and normal modes.

Expected Behavior
No 522 connection timed out error
Steps To Reproduce
- Go to https://monkeytype.com/
- Wait for about 30 seconds before game loads
Environment
- OS: Ubuntu 22.04 (was reproduced on Windows 11 too)
- Browser: Firefox (same on Chrome)
- Browser Version: 110.0.1 (64-bit)
Anything else?

Research direction
No source files, tests, or entry points are mentioned. Start by reproducing the timeout at https://monkeytype.com/ in the listed browsers and inspect the site's deployment and connection configuration; done means the page loads without 522 errors and the failure is covered by a verified reproduction check.
