Local stockfish broken as of a few hours ago?

Hey, I'm new to the site.
So far, I've mostly used the training feature, with the occasional analysis using the (awesome) local stockfish engine.

As of this morning though, it doesn't work. It gets stuck on "loading engine" most of the time, and the times it has given me an analysis, it doesn't show arrows for the suggested moves upon hover, so I have to read through the notation in the move list to know what it's suggesting.
Mostly, though, it simply doesn't work at all.

I've cleared cookies/local storage and tried a secondary browser (Edge) logged-out, but I get exactly the same issue there.
I just had that "loading engine" problem too
It works in studies, but still doesn't in the puzzle of the day, sorry.

Edit : It works for other training puzzles. But not for the puzzle of the day.
Works for me now, both training puzzles and puzzle of the day. :)
I think sometimes if you have a really bad connection and/or slow computer, sometimes local stockfish doesn't work.
I still have this problem. Might be gone after a reboot though.
Not related to a reboot or anything local for me, Stockfish works for analysis but not for tactical problems or after game analisys
