AO3 down status and problems

Is AO3 down or are you having any other problems? Archive of Our Own can now and then have issues with a few areas, such as login not working, loading of pages and of course worst case is when servers completely go down.

Archiveofourown.org is one of the best sites for fanart etc, in a way similar to fanfiction.net. It is a site that also has fandoms, TV shows, and projects from users, movies and video games. If you have an AO3 account it allows you to share your own fanworks, get notifications, join challenges and so much more.

What is your AO3 status? It has been said many fanfiction.net users migrated to AO3, was you one of them?

  • MadameAzazel

    AO3 is down as of 4/2/17
    According to their Twitter page, they still haven’t found the cause of the site being down. And they also updated the servers so that could also contribute to the site being down.
