Can’t chat with your Discord friends? You’re not the only one. The popular chat platform has been down for some users since at least 3:08PM ET when the company said it had begun investigating an issue with its API systems. Shortly thereafter, at 3:24PM ET, Discord said it had identified the problem, but noted it was still affecting users, making it difficult for them to use the service.
“We are continuing to work to remediate the issues impacting availability for some Discord users,” the company said at3:56PM ET, as part of its latest update. “This is causing impact across our service, including logging in and sending messages.”
Whatever is causing the service disruption, it making it so that people can’t use Discord at all, this writer included. I tried to add a new friend to my contact list, only for the service to tell me the username I was trying to add didn’t exist. I then tried to restart Discord and now the app won’t start at all. We’ll update this article once the app’s running again.
