Yes, noticed slow message sending and then now slack will not open on desktop. On web it shows

"Server Error

It seems like there’s a problem connecting to our servers, and we’re investigating the issue.

Please check our Status page for updates."

and on the slack status page it's all green

EDIT: interestingly, the help pages are all down for me as well https://slack.com/help/articles/205138367-Troubleshoot-conne...

DownDetector [1] is sometimes a better status page.

It reports several services which started facing increased error rates at the same time: Slack, Webull, Robinhood, Vanguard, IRS, Apex Legends

Also AWS, yet the AWS status page shows all is well. I wonder if all the down services are due to AWS.
