Has anyone else noticed major instability with Microsoft services lately? I'm facing issues like the M365 Admin Center partially loading or timing out, problems establishing a session in Exchange Online using PowerShell (`Connect-ExchangeOnline`), and significant delays in GitHub Actions where jobs are queuing longer than usual. It seems like this connectivity problem is affecting several services at once. I've been checking the health dashboard, but that's been slow to load as well. Can anyone confirm if they're having similar issues?

Yep, everything's down! I can't access any of the services either.
Looks like we're all in the same boat... What a mess!
According to Microsoft, there are issues affecting service functionality for multiple services, especially in North America. Users might be getting errors like "451 4.3.2 temporary server issue" when trying to send or receive emails. They're working on fixing it, but it doesn't seem like they'll update until later.
Good to know! Their status page isn't even loading, which is adding to the frustration.
Same here, couldn't even check notifications in the admin panel earlier.
I was getting a lot done until the admin center started failing on me. Super frustrating!
At least their excuse is consistent—just unavoidable issues!
This is why I had backup systems set up! Taking a breather.
If you're running on-prem solutions, you might not even realize things are down. It's a bit blissful until you need to send an important email or something.
True, though I can't help but think about potential vulnerabilities and zero-days coming our way!
Honestly, I kind of miss the reliability of older Exchange versions.
Looks like the connectivity problems are widespread. Some regions are doing okay, but many are suffering from serious slowdowns or outages. Makes the helpdesk job a real challenge right now!
At least for now, it’s nice not getting bombarded with emails!
That’s one way to look at it. Just hope they get this sorted soon.

Same here! The status page isn't accessible right now either!
