Global YouTube outage hits users with Something went wrong message
YouTube experienced a massive global outage on Wednesday (February 18), which also affected YouTube TV, preventing a large number of users from accessing the services normally.
The website Downdetector reported that over 320,000 users in the US alone flagged issues simultaneously, with additional reports emerging from users worldwide.
Upon opening the application or website, users encounter a "Something went wrong" error message on the homepage, and videos fail to load.
However, videos can still be viewed via direct links or through subscribed channels.
At this time, YouTube has not yet released an official statement regarding the cause of the delay or disruption.
