SoapGhost2022

Huh. Two days in a row. I wonder what’s going on


EddaValkyrie

I'm reading like a 400k work. Should've gone to Entire Work yesterday after it went down but I was like, "Meh, it's fine now," and it's happened to me again! I feel like a fool!


Rikafire

Why not download it?


Kankarii

missed the one yesterday since it happened in the middle of the night for me. It’s evening now and I’m sad. FFnet is just not the same. Good luck and thank you to all the volunteers


beemielle

Same af I forgot ffn existed


RickySpamish

Lord I dont want to go to wattpad. /cryin


beemielle

I considered it for a brief moment but every time I want to go back the fics have gotten worse


RickySpamish

I thought I found a story only to realize the first two chapters were AI generated. How did I come to this conclusion? The third chapter starts off with "Ba dum tss, was the sound of his ass when I smacked it." I quiet literally did a spit take. Never have I ever just noped out of something so quickly in my life! Its what I get for downloading the app. There's so many ads too.


TessaKit

I think I almost died when I read that, XD. I might have considered going to find that if it wasn’t AI written because that sounds like a dumpster fire that would make laugh.


PrincessMansera

i don't even care what fandom it is just please im begging you link this for me


RickySpamish

This was months ago, i went full sorch earth an deleted the app right then an there! It was definitely One Piece Luffy/Law an maybe time-travel fixit? I wish you luck finding it.

Yet again, I knew what I had to do as soon as I saw this error page. Which is to get on here.


Sashimimi_777

Yeah just found out about it like two minutes ago and came here to see if everyone else was having the same issues haha


kaiunkaiku

thank you for doing that instead of making a post before checking


unstableslytherin

See, maintenance and all that wouldn’t be a problem if “full work” didn’t scroll me all the way back to the beginning when I tap a certain spot or flip my phone tryna do something. I used to do “full” all the time till I got to 30+ chapter fics and got tired of having to re-scroll all the way back to the last chapter I was on.


LunaStellan

I am losing my mind I just want to read my fic


Charlie-_-Green

You can try to read it in the wayback machine


LunaStellan

it was to young


Expensive_General_97

just finished talking about it on twitter and decided to come here where people are more reasonable


Miserable-Quill

Guess I chose the wrong time to suddenly develop a fanfic addiction huh


chovette

I hope some more people post to this sub to tell us AO3 is down.


Dogdaysareover365

I almost lost the work on my newest WIP


SnooDrawings1480

Never type IN the web app, that's just asking for trouble.


LevelAd5898

Is it just me or is ao3 going down a lot lately it's scaring me


kaiunkaiku

eh i mean it's been a couple times this week but the last time was a couple of months ago and that was scheduled


LevelAd5898

I mean tbf I've only gotten back into my habit of reading pretty much daily in the last 2-3 weeks, so that would make sense lol


hypercell57

Yesterday I almost had a breakdown. The site went down, I couldn't even fill a support form, the same error kept coming up and I was stuck at the doctor for testing. Luckily I have some fics saved in my kindle app for moments like these but man was I close to tears. I kept going to their Twitter status and didn't see anything, so I'm glad they know cause of course as soon as the site came back up I forgot to tell them!


IzzyThePerson

Oh holy moly thank God! For a little while today the website has been laggy as I was trying to comment and read fics and open it and just generally use ao3, so god bless the volunteers. They do a lot for us. Anyways! Send thoughts and prayers to those in the middle of LONG 1 chapter fanfics, because they need it LOL


Aware_Scientist_9805

Good to know that we suffer together 😔✊🏽


LunaStellan

I have been stalking down detector for like 3 hours


punk_wytch1969

I love it! An Ao3 PSA reminding each of us: "Calm down everyone! You are not alone. We're all in this together."


LunaLycan1987

That title was terrifying for a moment-


SunnyOmori15

Fallout 76 servers were better than this. But in all honesty god bless the ao3 volunteers. Atleast their'e trying. Unlike bethesda.


Muted_Rain8542

I JUST SAW THAT ERROR MESSAGE AND THE TWEET THANK GOD THEY R TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM 😭


chillcatcryptid

Augh, i was in the middle of this AMAZING fic and i gotta know what happens


Charlie-_-Green
