Site is Back up!

All is well

Site is Down

We have had an issue, but it should be resolved momentarily

The site is back up!

We’ve addressed the issues causing the site outages and the site is functioning as expected.

Thanks for the patience!

Intermittent site outages

7/18/23: We’re experiencing issues with our infrastructure. We’ve determined a root cause and are taking steps to address the issue.

Thanks for your patience as we work through this.

We’re back

3/16/23: As of 10:19 pm pacific, all systems are back and restored. Thanks for your patience, and also your impatience.

Scheduled maintenance ahoy

8 pm PDT: we’re taking the site down to do some last maintenance needed around our outage earlier this week. We expect to be back by 12am PDT

See you on the other side!

We’re back alive

Mar 15: 12:00 pm PST There may be some maintenance in our future, but we’re good to go for a while.

On the mend

Update 10:41 am pacific: We’ve had the site in read-only mode for a bit and we have a fix that we think we can apply to get us in the happy place.

We’ll have about a half hour of hard downtime ending probably by 12pm pacific to make this happen as quickly as cleanly as possible. Then we’ll open up the ability to write again slowly.

Site Down

The site is temporarily down as we try to resolve problems with the database. We hope to have the site back up shortly.

Update: it looks like we’re caught up in the large scale AWS issue; we’re working to get it back up and running.

Scheduled Maintenance, November 3

We have scheduled maintenance on the Daily Kos servers Thursday morning starting at 3:30 AM PT/6:30AM ET, November 3. We expect it to last about an hour.
