I sent them a message. Thanks.

Yeah, and I don't want to jump to conclusions, but the game Tempest doesn't really feel DRM-free to me, because with Galaxy down I can't start it in any way.

I find that hard to believe. Let me check...

[Installing latest version of Tempest with all DLCs]

Runs just fine without even having Galaxy installed.

Oh, wait, I have a hunch...

[checked my hunch]

Yeah, I was right. The devs are using an ancient version of the Galaxy DLL. As a result you must not use a firewall to block localhost (127.0.0.1) or the game will crash on startup.

It's a well known bug of old Galaxy.dll versions. Details here: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/crashes_in_games_with_galaxydll_or_galaxy64dll/post8

Thank you very much, I was confident that there was some explanation, but I didn't know about this umpteenth problem with Galaxy DLL. I see that GOG cares about applying Murphy's Law as much as possible.
It's happening again... again? I can't load anyone's profile, including my own. I either get a blank page or a 403 Forbidden error, depending on the browser. On the Privacy settings page, "Profile enabled" is unchecked and it's impossible to check it.

GOG Galaxy seems unaffected.

Update: 25 minutes later, the issue appears resolved. It's a bit unnerving how the problem seemingly only goes away after I reluctantly decide to post about it.

I am having the same issue

stgiga: I am having the same issue
Seems to work for me (I tried my own profile, yours, and a couple of others). It may be related to the other site issues staff are working on.
Also bear in mind a profile page that doesn't load anything could just mean the user has disabled the profile.
