In between glitches, Spotify's support page issues the following message to users: Mashable reached out for comment from Spotify, but have yet to hear back. EST, the Spotify Status account tweeted, 'Something's not quite right, and we're looking into it,' and it has yet to be fixed. According to Downdetector, which is owned by Mashable parent company Ziff Davis, reports of problems began trickling in around 12:49 p.m. At the time of writing, Spotify has logged users out and isn't recognizing accounts. Spotify went down for many users on Tuesday morning. For those that continue to have an issue with either Spotify or Discord, it may just now be a matter of a slight delay until access is fully restored.The only thing some Spotify users are hearing today is silence.

Whether or not that’s also the case for Spotify remains to be seen, but it is certainly possible. Interestingly, Discord didn't state that the original problem was fixed, but a workaround was implemented instead.

Also similar to Spotify, Discord acknowledged the problem and in slightly more detailed fashion by providing continuous updates on the progress it was making to implement a fix. The Discord issue also seems to have now been fixed, again, with access restored roughly around the same time as Spotify. At the same time, if the two outages were unrelated, then that would have been one strange coincidence. If the two outages were related, then it would normally be expected that there would be reports of other major services going down as well, especially if the problem was at the DNS or server level. Strangely, Discord was also down today and appeared to have started encountering issues around the same time as Spotify.
