I haven't seen any issues with AWS. Slack seemed to be having it's own issues. Notion is having an outage as well. But otherwise, it's not widespread and none of the AWS services my group runs are having any issues. Sometimes these are coordinated DDOS attacks, but I can't imagine who would target Slack, Notion and Hacker News.
- mst 6y agoI don't believe anybody's suggesting Slack and HN are being targeted, more that Slack being down means HN is being hugged to death by actual users.
- yreg 6y agoksec didn't imply hn is a DDoS target. They pointed out that hn is usually rather slow when there are largescale infrastructure issues, because people come debate about them here. I've noticed it many times in the past year. E.g. when Google services had the big outage, or when AWS US-EAST-1 was down, or when Facebook SDK broke all the iOS apps, etc.
