yes ao3 is down but guess what? somehow, despite every other website and application experiencing issues, Tumblr is still up.

ask game: send in your outages and/or what fic you were reading on ao3 before it all went down.

cloudflare for the love of god please get it together we're dying out here

Looks like a Cloudflare outage has taken down AO3 and some other sites this morning. I’m not seeing any news reports on it, but it doesn’t look to be AO3 specific and down detector is showing an enormous spike in Cloudflare outage reports. Cloudflare is a service many websites use for security to help improve load times and protect against DDoS attacks.
