I work at a similar size tech co (Before layoffs) and we have incidents fairly regularly. The only reason things don't stay broken is because of responsive and skilled SREs. With the pace Elon is trying to set + people leaving a 2hr+ incident wouldn't be surprising.

I'm layperson, was married to sysadmin, have been woken up by pager, have nearly frozen/starved to death in colo facilities, have rough familiarity w how this stuff works. I think there r likely 2b outages of 2+ hours during transition but I don't think site is gonna disappear.

Other than that download problem I honestly haven't noticed anything broken (though I have noticed change in type of ads) but I have a small account so have fewer instances to draw from ig. I've been on Twitter a lot the last few days tho.
