I was logged out of Hulu on my streaming box and can't log back in on any device. I don't know if this is all of Hulu or just in certain regions or what.

Subjectively, I've been seeing a lot of high ping/packet loss in gaming and sites loading tonight. Can't help but wonder if something more fundamental is going on.

My HDD died and I had to redownload 10TB of stuff. I should be done by tomorrow. Sorry about that.

Maybe they're in the same pickle my company is in. We're having to migrate from edgecasr to akamai before noon tomorrow.

It looks like the Hulu subreddit is full of unhappy people complaining about it.

Doesn't appear to be a Hulu Threadiverse community.

That is the Fediverse. "Threadiverse" was a buzzword made up by Meta when they tried to force attach Threads to us.

i see this a lot but this is a misconception. “threadiverse” originally was a term to describe the “threaded fediverse” i.e. Reddit-like platforms like Lemmy and kbin. Bluesky and Threads are not threadiverse because they operate on the microblog model not the threaded link aggregation model. this usage has nothing to do with the then non-fediverse related Meta project “Threads” and can be seen predating it.

Correct, but I do want to mention that Bluesky did end up adding beta support for threaded (nested) replies but I'm unsure if it went further or has been abandoned.

#no

Meta stole that from us. People were using the term and it was gaining momentum until Meta's "Threads" was announced.

I've had so many random logouts since they started doing the disney integration stuff. This outage was particularly long though.

I... doubt it?

I took the liberty of looking in the developer tools as it failed, and there was a 500 response. The connection to Hulu's servers was all over HTTPS and I didn't get any certificate warning, so unless my ISP managed to get Hulu's private key or got with a corrupt registrar willing to issue a valid replacement certificate, no ISP should be able to change response codes on a man-in-the-middle basis or a redirecting-traffic-to-a-hostile-server basis.

And given how many people have reported issues, I doubt it's specific to any particular ISPs.

Net neutrality being dead is a huge bummer, but I don't think this can be blamed on that.

Same here so it’s not just you. I switched to Disney+ and it worked though.
