Claude Down? Users Hit with Authentication Errors as Status Page Stays Silent
Claude Seems Down
Users report that Claude is throwing 'Authentication service was unavailable.' errors, while the official status page shows no issues. However, Downdetector is already tracking the outage, suggesting a broader problem. The discrepancy between user reports and the status page is causing confusion and frustration.
Throwing "Authentication service was unavailable.", no updates on their status page, but there are on downdetector

As usual with these posts (here and on reddit), the outage is over within 5-10 minutes. Makes you wonder what power these have over the minds of SWE's who rush to scream immediately when their tool stop working.

The past couple of days I have noticed a presentation layer bug, probably due to getting overwhelmed that causes my session to get all dorked up technical term. Claude itself never goes down and is always waiting for my response. Not sure if it matters but I only use the Sonnet model. I've never had any issues logging in. Perhaps they have anycast [1] regional web proxies?
