210 points in 5 minutes. 500 in 10. Seems everyone see's the status page and is like "hey, time to check hn" ;-) EDIT: You can permanently refresh and see the score increase by 2-3 points each second. Wow. EDIT 2: 1800 after one hour, but a few points were probably lost due to HN downtime. Being quick to post is important, guys;-)

who would have thought a lot of folks here also use google products.

for real, though, hacker news is getting slower every second since this thread is up. i won't be shocked if it goes down due to the surge of traffic due to google outage

And somehow Pokemon Go is down, too. They use GCP for hosting, but I'm not seeing other outages on GCP. Maybe they have deeper integration with Google's Cloud than publicly disclosed?

Discord is GCP and down also.

Hackernews is also having some kind of stability issues, either everyone is on here complaining about the google outages, or somehow they share infra.

It's super interesting that all Google services that I've tried are down _except_ for Google Search. What would isolate Search from the rest of Google's products such that it wouldn't be affected by a mass outage like this?

I’d guess Search is pretty well segregated from basically everything else because of how valuable it is - I’m logged into Google on Search and it works fine (unlike everything else)
