Everything seems to have recovered as Bluesky reports “All systems Operational“, and timelines are appearing with new posts.
Total downtime was a little over an hour, and the platform appears to be operating as expected. No official word as to what caused the downtime yet.

Decentralization hasn’t helped Bluesky’s outages from affecting only a small portion of users, as more report problems in Australia and Canada.
Switching global regions with a VPN shows the same for me — no content loads in any location, though the website itself remains live with HTML code and CSS stylings operational.
Bluesky’s official status page still reads “Some systems down” while we wait.

The outages at BlueSky are widespread, and Redditors are venting their frustration.
“Yeah. So often recently” says MapleLotus96 as others report downtime in Italy, Korea, and Portgual.

Bluesky is reporting “Some systems down“ and it seems to be affecting major servers feeding content to the United States and part of Europe.
Are your timelines blank? I have tried switching regions with a VPN, but nothing has loaded for the past thirty minutes.
