It’s not just you — Bluesky is (sorta) down

What Happened

Bluesky's website and app experienced intermittent outages starting Thursday at 2:42 a.m. ET. COO Rose Wang attributed the issues to a denial-of-service attack. Users encountered error messages and slow loading times across popular feeds like Discover and the official Bluesky Team feed. Personal feeds loaded more reliably. Protocol engineer Bryan Newbold confirmed service struggles. The company provided no official statement or repair timeline. Other communities using the underlying protocol remained functional.
