us-east-1 was, probably still is, AWS' most massive deployment. Huge percentage of traffic goes through that region. Also, lots of services backhaul to that region, especially S3 and CloudFront. So even if your compute is in a different region (at Tower.dev we use eu-central-1 mostly), outages in us-east-1 can have some halo effect.

This outage seems really to be DynamoDB related, so the blast radius in services affected is going to be big. Seems they're still triaging.

your website loads for a second and then suddenly goes blank. There is one fatal errors from Framer in the console
It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
Thanks...probably an issue with Framer during the outage.
