Social media reports
Several users took to X (formerly Twitter) to report the issues they were encountering.
“Most of my websites are working fine, but #Goodreads mainly down, Yahoo Mail isn't loading today, and Adobe won't load on their website. I'm assuming the three use something similar with their server that is down today. Annoying. X, Amazon, Reddit are working fine,” one user wrote.
Another added, "Can't access Yahoo Mail and asking to reload."
A third user complained, "If you can’t check your email and Yahoo Mail just gives you ‘Temporary Error 15,’ welcome to the club. Apparently thousands of us are locked out with no ETA on a fix."
Another person tweeted, "Yahoo Mail is DOWN. Users worldwide report login failures, inbox not loading, and repeated errors. Emails stuck. Work paused. Frustration rising. No official fix yet."
