I feel like the internet should probably be hosted in as many different servers and physical locations as possible. It seems alarming that these things happen as often as they do
It was only the one AWS region that went down, us-east-1. Unfortunately that’s the big kahuna. But they’ve got regions and availability zones around the globe. The services that went down due to the outage need to get some cross-region redundancy happening, but that’s the kind of thing that’s never a priority until the moment you need it.
If fortnite goes down, I laugh.
It is sort of depressing how concentrated or centralized the internet has gotten.
Onlyfans is also affected
That’s the wake-up call; we need a fedi alternative!
Fediverse priority #1: Be able to talk to a paid actor pretending to be a model* Priority #2: Spend money to see the nudes they send in DMs
*for major creators, I’m sure many minor/independent ones are genuine
Just be a server admin and therefore see every local users DMs!

Signal is down too.
Works (again?) for me.
Confirmed. Should be back up now
It seems odd that it’s all on one aws server cluster. Wouldn’t they all automatically activate their backup server on another instance?
it’s us-east-1 that’s down, which is the one region with all the AWS services that aren’t easy to replicate, like DynamoDB, a major database service used by so so many companies out there. Its an all eggs in one basket kind of scenario. If it was any other region, we’d be fine.
cross-region failovers are a thing, but they’re expensive to maintain so not everyone does it. I am kinda surprised one region failure had this much impact though
I like how Fortnite is part of this.
