Lowkey status reports are the norm now :) "some users may experience degraded service" => site completely down for all locations

  I fully expect that if I find a "major outage" on Slack's status page that it could only mean the outbreak of nuclear war.

      I was going to link the appropriate XKCD where organised attackers are panicing as they realise they're dealing with a sysadmin muttering about uptime.. .. but of course XKCD is down too. e: https://xkcd.com/705/ https://xkcd.com/705/

  "We're investigating reports of intermittent connectivity issues" => transatlantic cables cut, WWIII imminent

  Or the AWS typical status of ‘seeing increased error rates on the API’ = us-east-1 is dead

    At least that's accurate. "Degraded performance" would imply to me that things are functional, but slow. increased error rates can be anything from "try again" to ":shrug:"

  Yeah, that's my experience as well. I thought it meant "we have no idea what's going on" though.

Yes, I also thought the header was hilarious: > CDN Performance Impact

Yeah, I also wrote a bot that chooses to create a status incident with the lowest key neutral message when it detects continued healthcheck fails (outside of maintenance) that steps in if an operator hasn't already created an incident. Maybe they're too busy fixing.
