Countless sites and ?? ??? ??services — stalwarts like Twitch, Gmail, Discord, Nintendo, and more — went down on Thursday afternoon, eastern time. The internet, even as large swaths of it went down, was quick to react on social media. And, in short, people were freaking out.
People posted screenshots of Down Detector, which showed, well, just about everything was out. It's worth noting that Down Detector registers user-reported issues, so you still may have access to sites experiencing spikes. (Disclosure: Ziff Davis owns both Mashable and Down Detector.)

Almost all of the internet may be down, but the internet still has jokes about it.
