@dang or anyone
Can someone push this up since it’s becoming quite serious and I don’t know what to do.
Agreed, let's upvote this thread higher to get some eyes on this.
Likely something at the root level went bananas.

The .space zone seems to have gone from 973093 domains to 447730
Where did you get that number?
Manually repropagate, I just added the NS records again (removed, saved, re-added) and it worked.
also did this, hasnt resolved yet.
My .space domains seem to work again
It seems to ping-pong back and forth. Our monitoring is basically spamming us with DNS down, DNS up every 5 minutes or so.
Down for us as well.
Email seems to be affected as well :(
Whois isn't even showing the domains and name servers. Not to mention DNS records. Its like the domains don't exist anymore.
Is there a “status page” for TLDs?
No idea. Never actually seen a failure like this in practise.
Looks like the zone file is back to normal size now.
It works now

Now we've switched it back to Cloudflare and still looks up.
So something in changing it seems to have jiggled some bits somewhere.
/ turn it on and off again / I guess
