Discord outage takes down servers and delays messages

No, it’s not your computer: a Discord outage on Wednesday has taken down many servers, and it’s unclear when the issue will be fixed.

According to the Discord Status website, a partial outage of APIs reported a little after 1:30pm ET has led to increased latency delaying message sending and a high error rate in API requests. This has resulted in varying servers becoming unavailable, and the error report claims Discord is investigating, and a follow-up message at 2:14pm ET noted that Discord is implementing a fix.
