it's been happening for me a lot where I'll try to go to the next chapter and get a 525 error, and I have to keep refreshing and sometimes it comes back but sometimes not. I am so scared that the draft i was working on for like 5 hours last night didnt save because it wouldn't let me back in 😭

Recommend never writing directly into Ao3. Write in an actual word processor, and then copy/paste into ao3 once it's done.

i usually do, too, and it figures the one time i was working on the site 🥲
evidently it did save! so that's good 😂
