This is probably 5th or 6th major outage from Fly.io that I have personally seen. Pretty sure there were many others and some just went unnoticed. I recommended the service to a friend, and within two days he faced two outages. Fly.io seriously needs to get it together. Why it hasn’t happened yet is a mystery to me.

fly.io just has the weirdest outages. It has issues so regularly we dont even need to run mock outages to make sure our system fail overs work.
Once in a while we'd have a real outage that matched the test we ran as recently as the weekend before.
I was helping a bank switch over to the DR site(s) one day during such a real outage and I left my mic open when someone asked me what the commotion was on the upper floors of our HQ. I said "super happy fun surprise disaster recovery test for company X".
VP of BIG bank was on the line monitoring and laughed "I'm using that one on the executive call in 15, thanks!" Supposedly it got picked up at the bank internally after the VP made the joke and was an unofficial code for such an outage for a long time.

It is not reflected in their status page, but fly.io itself is not even loading.
(There's not a single price on there, why even create the page?)
Kinda funny that they've named their global state store "Corrosion"... not really a word I'd associate with stability and persistence.
> Ok.I caught up with our oncall and This seems related to the Fly.io incident that is reported in our status page. Our login does call things in the Fly.io API
> we are already in touch with Fly and will see if we can speed this up
