YouTube is broken and the internet doesn't know what to do with itself -- other than tweet.
If you've checked YouTube on 10/16/2018 and experienced issues playing video or even getting a webpage to load, you're not the only one! At 6:41pm PT Oct 16, 2018 YouTube tweeted from their official twitter that YouTube was experiencing issues across it's Tv and Music channels, though the internet seems to find it to be a more broad issue, with many users taking to Twitter to express their experiences and concerns with the general public.
YouTube had this to say:
Thanks for your reports about YouTube, YouTube TV and YouTube Music access issues. We're working on resolving this and will let you know once fixed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will keep you updated.
While you might think that a bug of this level would cause outrage, it would appear that many are still complacent and fine with platforms sudden issue. Here are some tweets that I found regarding the topic.
Most users have been making light of the issue via jokes, and nods to other Video platforms. However news outlets are treating things a bit more cautiously.
Do you think this will be a lingering issue with the platform or just a bug as they make changes for Music, Tv, and Gaming on the platform? Either way, I'm a bit sad it looks like I'll be going without my tutorials tonight.
Thanks for tuning in
