I just went to the site and started watching a video -- seems to be working for me, at least. YMMV
Is it bias, or are outages genuinely becoming more common? If the latter, why?
The twitter fail whale was a thing a decade ago now.
I don't think outages are more common as such, but we pay more attention to them since we live in mobile phones nowadays.
There has been a lot of contralization of web servers into 3rd party CDNs like Akamai and Cloudflare, probably more than is truly needed by smaller actors who instead just need to fix their crappy DB access patterns and rid themselves of all the tracking js, but that in and of itself doesnt mean more outages...just a larger blast radius when an outage does happen.

I suspect this is a typo, but it really should be a thing :)

We're concentrating our traffic around few and few sites/service, outages are just more noticeable. Google and YouTube have an impressive uptime record.
YouTube is working fine here, and I can't remember YouTube ever being down.

Even YouTube goes down. Good reminder for us mere cyber mortals with our total customer base of 100ks and not millions. Nobodys perfect!
I was just about to research 1:60 scale mapmaking for my rpg campaign since I was going to adapt a modern day map hidden as a fantasy map, and boom, shes dead Jim.
