Thanks for reporting it. It also has a GitHub repo for issues

but I see it is not very active, so I raised the issue internally. I can’t load it either. I know it happens from time to time.

Until it is up again, you can play with Docker on some alternatives like

It requires logging in, but it is free. The downside is that the trainings you probably want to access would use Play With Docker’s infrastructure.

Update:

Where did you find the link to Play With Docker? Docker has a new Get Started guide

It requires Docker Desktop

Thank you for reporting this, also noticed play-with-docker.com not available for the last few days.
Used iximiuz as a temporary workaround, but it’s less convenient.

It seems to be up and running again since today.

Though play-with-docker works now in general, a new issue occurred - couldn’t connect to the instance using the provided ssh command, tried from multiple different machines/locations.

Can someone also please try it? (need to open https://labs.play-with-docker.com/ → Login / Start → Add New Instance → Copy ssh command → Try it in your system terminal).
