Numerous sites and apps are experiencing problems this afternoon but, as of Thursday evening, those services were starting to recover.
Spotify is experiencing issues, which appear to be causing some users to be unable to use the music streaming platform. At just after 2:15 p.m. ET, we saw huge spikes in Down Detector reports for Spotify. While the music streamer hasn't commented on the outage yet, we can't help but wonder if the ongoing issues with Google Cloud could be connected.
The tech giant isn't the only platform reporting issues. Spotify, Discord, Amazon Web Services and Snapchat are currently topping the charts on DownDetector. Even the Pokemon Trading Card Game is having problems.
