How does down.now know if Archive of Our Own is down?
Down.Now watches two crowd signals for Archive of Our Own — anonymous reports submitted here, and public social-media posts about it — and compares the live volume against what's normal for that hour of the day. A sustained spike above that baseline opens an incident, which is usually visible before an official confirmation. We measure what users report, not Archive of Our Own's servers directly.
