It is surprising that their status page is down too:

#42How much do you guys think these frequent outages will effect their market share in cloud products? Is this enough of a push for organizations to actually move over their infrastructure to other providers?
It’s prompted discussions of building multi regional services in my org but not multi cloud. They would have to really really really screw up for that to happen… maybe be down for like a week or something.

#49Yep, it's broken again. I was trying to install some Thunderbird extensions, and stuff started breaking halfway through. Never thought of an AWS outage borking my mail client I guess...

#50obligatory comment about status page showing seas of green: https://status.aws.amazon.com
For this kind of thing it's usually better to just use a user-driven site like: https://downdetector.ca/status/aws-amazon-web-services/
Some users are clueless, but the clueless users average out over time and the spikes make it clear when there are actual issues.
