It's a Sev 0 actually (as one would expect - this isn't a big secret). I was on the engineering bridge call earlier for a bit. The Azure service I work on was minimally impacted (our customer facing dashboard could not load, but APIs and data layer were not impacted) but we found a workaround.
It was here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45749054 but that comment has been deleted.
Seems all Microsoft-related domains are impacted in some way.
• https://www.xbox.com/en-US also doesn't fully paint. Header comes up, but not the rest of the page.
• https://www.minecraft.net/en-us is extremely slow, but eventually came up.
It sure must be embarrassing for the website of the second richest company in the world to be down.
Yeah, I am guessing it's just a placeholder till they get more info. I thought I saw somewhere that internally within Microsoft it's seen as a "Sev 1" with "all hands on deck" - Annoyingly I can't remember where I saw it, so if someone spots it before I do, please credit that person :D
Edit: Typo!
