YouTube Is Down

38 points by HughParry 11mo ago

More interesting than YouTube being down is the fact that YouTube doesn’t appear to have an official status page that is exposed externally. Reported by 3rd party sites for reference: https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/youtube https://downdetector.co.uk/status/youtube/

Fine for me

  Most services appear to work, aside from actual video streaming for me

    YouTube music is 95% broken for me too. UK.

I thought so, guess I’ll have to wait patiently to see “cat needs help with wheel” for the 467th time.

Agreed, seems like the actual video serving is totally down.

  Not totally, I'll catch an occasional video - I'm watching one right now - but then I'll switch and it'll die again. Can't use Youtube music either for the same reason.

I wonder how they managed to kill it worldwide all at once, is there just one streaming server?

  just flinging a wild guess, certificate expiry seems plausible, weve seen it many times before with other sites.

Any outage is well deserved. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/10/15/israel-ads-youtube-famine-gaza/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/10/15/israel-...
