Makes no sense. If you're having issues wouldn't you just go directly to <insert service here>'s status page first? Why HN first?

- astrosi 5y agoIn many cases the status page of a service is an unreliable indicator (e.g. AWS's) so I find HN / Twitter to be a much better signal that an incident that affects many people is happening.
