Discord is suffering a 'massive outage' preventing users from logging in to the service or using voice chats.
The outage started at 2:49 PM EST and was originally caused by a widespread API outage.
"We have identified the underlying issue with the API outage but are dealing with a secondary issue on one of our database clusters. We have our entire on-call response team online and responding to the issue," Discord explained on their status page.
Users who attempt to log into Discord are met with a spinning logo, which ultimately shows a message about the outage.
