Yes everyone, Spotify and Discord are down.

On Tuesday, people reported log in issues with the music streaming service Spotify. At the same time, users also say they are experiencing issues with the messaging service Discord.

A Spotify support account on Twitter said in a tweet, “Something’s not quite right, and we’re looking into it. Thanks for your reports!”

Some Spotify users have reported being logged out involuntarily, and are having issues logging back in.

Others say their music libraries have disappeared.

Spotify had not responded to a request by the Star at the time of publishing.

Downdetector said reports about the Spotify outage peaked around 1:30 p.m., where 175,361 users reported having issues with the service. On Discord, reports spiked highest at 1:18 p.m.

Messaging service Discord said in a tweet, “We’re aware of an issue causing message failures and are working on a fix. Apologies for the disruption & thx for hanging tight!”

Discord’s website said the company was investigating issues that started just after noon on Tuesday, and said on-call engineers are looking into the root cause of the issue.

More to come.
