I think it is caused by AdBlocker maybe blocking WebRTC

from gun-chat.

Ad blockers do not just block all WebRTC connections, that would be an insane thing to do. You would essentially be blocking an entire web protocol lol. You would have to have a specific extension designed to block WebRTC connections maybe to prevent an IP leak etc.

In this case thats because there isn't a websocket on that port as far as I know from briefly looking at the code. We never started a server on that port.

Not sure if this is related but I see this error come up when I try deploying it on AWS "'web socket connection to wss://gun-manhattan.herokuapp.com/gun failed'. Any idea what could be going wrong"

Do you have a websocket server ruining on that? If not, thats the reason. You need to a gun server like (this is an example of running one on locahost, haven't fully tested this or anything but should give you an idea):

const server = require('http').createServer().listen(8765);
  new Gun({
    web: server,
  });

I myself have abandoned this for now because if all users leave, it forgets the data only until you restart the server does it then load the saved data. In other words you would have to restart the server everytime there was no activity (no other peers to get the data from)
