With the length of the outage it seems more like a DB issue. And if this is still correct there look to be some fragile dependencies.

The API isn't even returning valid error codes.

  logging error: {"subtype":"api_call_error","message":"{\"ok\":false,\"error\":\"_http_error\",\"status\":0,\"retry_after\":null}","stack":"Error\n  

As you can hit their api servers I am betting some replication error in mysql but that is just a guess based on that case study.

I am betting they are saying 'connectivity' because that is the error the client logs.

It is back up for me, but now I am annoyed they can't follow specs at all.

For l

They ignore:

And kitchen sink everything under the xdg config dir...
