Youtube hasn't used flash for a couple of years now, so I doubt that has anything to do with it. I did notice a little slowdown on Youtube a few days ago, but it solved itself in a matter of hours.Card Slinger J wrote: ↑3 years agoLooks like YouTube is down. I thought it might of had something to do with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player and when I updated it the website still won't view videos on my web browser. Anyone know what's going on?
About a year ago, Youtube didn't work for much of Europe for almost a week, turned out to be a server issue on their side. They had migrated to new servers in Europe and it took quite a while for it to propagate properly due to the sheer size of Youtube.
Edit: Apparently it was down for a while earlier today. But it got resolved, relatively quickly. There is no official reason (yet), and it primarily affected North America.
