Cannot reach extensions search from Firefox about:addons page. I keep getting the following when I search for any extension.

Error 503 Backend.max_conn reached Backend.max_conn reached Error 54113 Details: cache-bfi-krnt7300022-BFI 1787247272 698900040 Varnish cache server


Firefox lately seems to create problems every time it is updated. I am really leaning towards making MSEdge my default browser because I am tired of these problems cropping up at each major update. I spent several hours this morning making sure my bookmarks and my saved logins and passwords were up to date with what I have in Firefox plus making sure my privacy and security were at it's tightest and strongest there. Major updates for Firefox use to go smoothly and seamlessly but that is now questionable.

There has been an outage across some datacenters in Pacific Northwest region (the error above is signed with Seattle, WA trailer) — and the loads for addons infrastructure seem to be backed off for a while, so the hosts can't serve everyone at this point unfortunately. I've had some mild success in the past couple of hours, but it might depend on the types of operations you need to perform (e.g. some reported searches were still returning errors etc.)
