    A large-scale outage is happening on both GCP and Cloudflare services 🥹 Google Meet seems to be affected too.  I'm so glad that a meeting was rescheduled at the last minute.  —  GCP: status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ ow...  Cloudflare: www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/ 25...

    Google cloud is having an outage and that's taking Replit down. We're working with them to bring it back up ASAP.

    global internet outage, and x is somehow still up? we're truly in the upside down
  • @dhh @dhh on x
    Cloud concentration wrecked the internets primary design goal: aggregate resilience. DARPA designed it to survive a damn nuclear strike. Now it can barely survive a single hyperscaler wobbling. We've pissed DARPA's genius away. Tragic.
  • @openai @openai on x
    We are aware of issues affecting multiple external internet providers, impacting the availability of our services such as single sign-on (SSO) and other log-in methods. Our engineering teams are working to mitigate these issues. Thank you for your continued patience. For the

    There's a global internet outage happening, affecting OpenRouter along with many other companies (see image 1). Part of the reason appears to be Cloudflare-related - you can check the status at https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ [image]
  • @bindureddy Bindu Reddy on x
    The entire internet right now I have been experiencing errors for the last 2 hours and have been complaining to engineering. Not realizing GCP, AWS and CloudFlare are all down [image]
  • @tomwarren Tom Warren on x
    no wonder Google Cloud is far behind AWS and Azure. They can't even get a status page working when there's a global outage impacting customers and services like Google Home https://www.theverge.com/...
  • @mikeisaac Rat King on x
    this has been going on for like an hour and have seen v little chatter abt it outside of my chats (which is probably more a function of twitter being not v good at surfacing stuff)
  • @harvitronix Matt Harvey on x
    I do love how the Google Cloud Status page is always the last one to know that Google Cloud is down

    Somebody help me out here, on multiple occasions (including right now) when I've noticed Google Cloud (GCP) is down, I check their status page and all I see is green. Am I looking at the wrong status page? @googlecloud [image]

    Just finished my first day as a staff engineering manager at Google under the GCP division. A little overwhelming, but I think the changes we just pushed should really improve performance for everyone. Signing off for the weekend!
  • @techbronyc @techbronyc on x
    Our whole platform is down, customers are berating us, thought I forgot to pay the cloud bill since I like to wait til Google threatens to shut me off before paying, but just a GCP outage with no comms to customers. How about they get their gay little Gemini model to fix it?
  • @tobinsouth Tobin South on x
    While we all wait for GCP & AWS & Cloudflare, and the rest of the internet to fix itself, here's a nice picture of a sheep in the countryside I took to remember that the sheep don't care about downtime. Be a sheep today. [image]

    the internet is having an outage (including our dashboard) - but if you're a Browserbase customer, don't worry - our APIs and browser infrastructure is still working just fine! if you have mission critical browser workloads that are down right now - we are here to help.
  • @gergelyorosz Gergely Orosz on x
    I am hearing this from a lot of people... GCP down but status page shows no issues (still!) Granted status pages are manually updated: but because it's Google, it's odd that DownDetector is a more reliable source of truth than GCP's status page

    Lovable is currently down due to an internet wide outage. We know this is frustrating, and we're just as eager to get back online. Unfortunately, it's out of our hands at the moment - but we're monitoring it closely and will keep you updated. Follow live status updates here:

    6/12/25 1:00 pm: Due to a sudden comms outage, some of our products, observations, weather radio, webpage content, etc. may not make it out to the public. Technicians are looking into that right now. Thanks to our friends @NWSNorman for providing a full service backup!

    There's a massive cloud outage happening now and neither X nor Bluesky is talking about it. That was like the one thing I could depend on social media about.
