Ask HN: Is YC being DOS'd?

[Kepler-431c]

I can't get to the YC application page because it's under heavy load. It only serves text. Is someone DOSing it so that no-one can apply?

It is overloaded; software team is working on it.

Not for me. Where are you located at?

SF Bay.

Try clicking on "Apply to Winter 2018" at https://www.ycombinator.com/apply/

It's only when you click that link you get the slowdown.
