Discord is down! The popular app that lets you chat with friends and others in games is experiencing an outage at this moment. Some can’t join calls or participate in text chats, others can’t even launch the application, which means everyone’s favorite way of communicating might be inaccessible for some time.. According to the official Discord Twitter Profile, Discord is experiencing a widespread API outage.

We are currently investigating a widespread API outage and are working to resolve this ASAP. More details on our status page: https://t.co/rq97JXB3gV pic.twitter.com/6tRWTf7QqM
