It’s only really noteworthy because it affects everyone at the same time. If everyone had an individual outage for the same duration at a random time, it wouldn’t even be noticeable in most cases.
On the other hand, when service X is down, you can go to another service or do something else… When half of the services are down, well…
It’s like one chicken farmer invented a new low cost web-scale egg storage container.
The main thing i learn in these outages is that so many services are lot less important than people think and many people spend far too many hours in work. Definitely less useful than chickens at any rate.
