YouTube was not fully down recently, but many users encountered significant issues. Reports indicated more than 340,000 instances of service disruption, as users saw errors stating “something went wrong” while trying to access the platform.

YouTube has confirmed that their recommendations system faced an issue that prevented videos from appearing across various surfaces like the homepage, app, and YouTube Music. After addressing these concerns, they reassured users that services are returning to normal.

“The issue with our recommendations system has been resolved and all of our platforms (YouTube.com, the YouTube app, YouTube Music, Kids, and TV) are back to normal! We really appreciate you bearing with us while we sorted this out.”
