If you are behind a proxy, you might want to try to access that without it (if possible for you).
You might also want to try to open the URL in your browser (which worked perfectly fine for me; I got the expected response).

Generally 504 means "Gateway Timeout" and is caused when a server (often a proxy or the API server) is not able to get a response from other servers (in case of a proxy the response from the actual server or in case of the API server for example the data from a database) and should NOT be caused by an issue with the library.

It could also be that that has been a temporary issue by the tmi-API-endpoint and it is resolved now.

Let me know if it works, if not add me on discord and I'll see what I can do. My bot is connected ATM.
