I think they did. The slack.com IP's are owned by AWS, while status.slack.com resolves to some Digital Ocean IP's.

  Then why did the Slack Status page have so many problems at the same time? Half the time loading it would give a 500 Internal Server Error, 45% of the time you'd get broken resources (images and/or CSS), and only 5% of loads would give you the full working page.

    Maybe because it's under a lot more load during an outage and they haven't upsized the status page infrastructure to handle their ever increasing user base.

    DNS issues?

    Maybe they underestimated how much resources their status page needs during an actual outage.
