Choosing us-east-1 as your primary region is good, because when you're down, everybody's down, too. You don't get this luxury with other US regions!

Doing pretty well up here in Tokyo region for now! Just can't log into console and some other stuff.

Signal is down from several vantage points and accounts in Europe, I'd guess because of this dependence on Amazon overseas We're having fun figuring out how to communicate amongst colleagues now! It's when it's gone when you realise your dependence

Thankfully Slack is still holding up.

It’s super broken for me. Random threads no longer appear.

Wasn't the point why AWS is so much premium that you will always get at least 6 nines if not more in availability?

It's usually true if you arent in US-East-1 which is widely known to be the least reliable location. Theres no reason anyone should be deploying anything new to it these days.
