You're attempting to access those websites over port 443 (HTTP+TLS) while those websites do not support this. Opening a session on port 80 will work as normal.

Better handling for falling back to HTTP when HTTPS is not available is planned for the 1.2 release.

I'm seeing a 504 error code for any HTTPS website. I have a certificate from Let's Encrypt and HTTPS works on the home page. Any idea what might be causing the error?

Thanks in advance
