Confirmed by my own email not working.... Probably limited to a small subset of users though.
Count me in. However, the Apps Status Dashboard shows that Gmail should be working, so probably you're right with the small subset affected.

Top of the front page in less than a minute. What does it say about us that our first response is to rush over to HN?
For example, when there were coinbase issues, people wouldn't get responses for weeks. However, once a post about the delays hit the front page, the founders finally responded.
So no, I'm not surprised this happened and I wouldn't be surprised to see a swift response
I can imagine a few reasons why there currently isn't an alternative, like network effects stemming from your contact list, or the fact that you'd have to change your email address everywhere and forward from your gmail account. But what are the real reasons?
Very funny that me and my coworkers at nearly the same time opened our office doors to look into each others eyes and silently confirm that we were having the same issue. Then we all turned around and went back into our offices to check HN to see if it was just us. Very funny that everyone reading this did something similar. 84 points in 4 minutes.
