YouTube down updates — Thousands of users report issues with video streaming app as subscriptions page is ‘broken’
YOUTUBE seems to be facing an outage tonight.
Over 15,100 YouTube users have reported issues with the video streaming platform as of 10 pm ET, according to Downdetector.
YouTube fans in the UK also faced issues earlier tonight when over 900 users reported problems with the platform.
The majority of problems appear to be related to the app itself, while some users are having trouble with the website and video streaming – and others are complaining that their subscriptions aren’t showing up.
“YouTube’s subscriptions feed just went down,” one user wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
YouTuber Nico B took down his latest video due to the problems as he slammed, “YouTube subscription page is currently broken and s**t just seems jacked up in general. Taking down today’s video until this s**t is fixed.”
