to reaffirm that the devnet is live I tried starting one and it said it was already live and it does not work. tried with and without --yes tags

It's strange, could you try to run this command: curl -X 'GET' 'http://127.0.0.1:22973/infos/node'?

devnet is not live This means your devnet is not properly launched.

I haven't reverted back to the next js implementation after I noticed I have no problems using devnet on the getting started repo so I don't think that is quite the issue; I will test more later today.
