I agree!

I'm definitely an amateur when it comes to networking stuff. At the time, the _only_ issue I had was with all of my Digital Ocean droplets. It was confusing because I was able to get to them through my LTE connection and not able to through my home ISP. I opened a ticket with DO worried that it was my ISP blocking IP addresses suddenly. It turned out to be this outage, but it was very specific. Traceroute gave some clues, but again I'm amateur and I couldn't tell what was happening after a certain point.

So yeah, I too would love a really easy to use page that could show outages like this. It would be really great to be able to specify vendors used to really piece the puzzle together.

I had a similar issue with my droplets as well. I thought I messed up something and then suddenly it worked again.
