AOL Outage in Edmonton, Greater London, England

@Miss_Snuffy Self pity finds many friends online from the earliest days of community forums up to today's toxic social media. "Share your support" we used to say at AOL and people did and lots was valuable, but a deep streak of 'alternative truth' bedded down there too to solicit attention.

@Suvvo @AOL I’m having same problem… think it’s worldwide

@AOLSupportHelp hi there having trouble accessing my emails at the moment , I’ve tried to reset my password and it won’t allow me to , could you help?

@AOLSupportHelp hi we have forgotten our aol@password tried to recover it but can’t, have no recovery details set up help please

When it first arrived — and I made a blog there within the first two months of its public existence — @tumblr was the near perfect blogging platform. Then AOL destroyed it. Now it’s a horrible jail where I can’t get rid of this dumb screen. Thanks @automatic.

The first PlayStation came out, and Macs transitioned to Power PC. AOL is launched. Amazon was founded. Microsoft announces it will no longer sell or support the MS-DOS operating system separately from Microsoft Windows

@KwakuMMNT 112 by default. Jagged Edge were broadcasting to us using 2001 AOL dial up. Horrible signal.

@NW6Rd You've just reminded me my contract is up with my absolutely appalling @SkyUK broadband. It's so slow it's like AOL dial-up

AGREED! Every kid except me had nice shiny internet...we were stuck with that shitty AOL dialup that we were only allowed to use to play Cartoon Network games on if we were good 🥴

@AOLSupportHelp We have been going around in circles and the reason I’ve tweeted my issue is I can’t get anywhere because we’ve done all the security Q’s and still 0 - I need to speak with a human being.....

@aolmail I’ve been attempting to retrieve my wife’s AOL password for the past 10 or more emails with your supposed email support. Its merry go round getting nowhere. Please assist.

@AOL unable to sign into email for last week. No response from customer services. No one to talk to either😡😡Absolute joke. Important emails that I cannot access. AOL can you please get on to this. Beyond frustrating.

@reece_dinsdale The other two are "Welcome to AOL: you're connected!" and "Goodbye...th-that's it." Damn I need to put these on my new laptop!

@neilperkin You'd think they could find a fix. This used to happen with all AOL accounts showing up as 'Virginia' 20 years ago!

CompuServe when I first got online in 1995, MSN Messenger, the very occasional foray into Usenet. Tried AOL, ICQ, a few others. But never enjoyed them. Had both AIM and Yahoo Meseenger But only very rarely used them.

@teleject @meyerweb It kinda does though... With MSN Explorer (yes that was a thing in 2001, competing with AOL) we enabled "toast notifications" and the name was because "the little thing popped like the toast on the screensavers." Real toast never does that. It sits there. It sometimes Burns.

@londongirluk @AOLSupportHelp Still not working 😠

@londongirluk @AOLSupportHelp I'm the same Julie. The app I'm using won't let me sign in

@1womanworkforce If he’s working from the aol ap I would delete it and reload. We had a problem with aol a while ago. The old Ap wasn’t working. Change the password just in case on your web version.

I was told by a rep ref. AOL: "it's a very old platform.." as if that was an excuse. If it doesn't work, they shouldn't take my money. @TalkTalk is a useless outfit too. I was called for months by fake Indian call centres after their data hack. My home internet sucks. @AOL @Ofcom

@harglenasty2000 @moviedoer @legotrillermoth no, we just remember what they told us on AOL and Playstation Network

@willmckinley Poor WB 😢 I forgot AOL had them at one point.

@mistrchristophr Early in my career, I worked for AOL (yes, really) and the developers who built/maintained the website I managed pronouncer it “earl”. To this day, I have NEVER heard anyone else say it that way so either they were ******* with me or they were trying to make fetch a thing 🤔

@YahooFinance #HOW MUCH POWER DOES YAHOO HAVE OVER AOL OR DO THEY BOTH BEND THE KNEE TO APOLLO MANAGEMENT WHO FEEDS THE OPPOSITE NARRATIVE IN DENMARK BUT FORCED TO USE SOROS $$ AND ALGORITHMS THAT HELP DISTRICT ATTORNEYS DESTROY GOOD PEOPLES LIVES! #TREASON/TRAITORS MOM IS SAD🙏!

At the rate they’re burning through people’s good will, WBDiscovery is going to implode in 6 months the same way AOL Time Warner did Once again, media consolidation is awful.

@AOLSupportHelp Why is it that when I DM you about something, I'm not helped at all and I am referred back to AOL's Support page, which refers me back here? Is there an e-mail address that I can use to e-mail the concerns to that I had originally DMed this account?

@SaintsSJ @POTUS45 It was better when msn had a messenger service or aol this is bs service

This Warner Discovery **** is gonna end so horribly, I just know it. It has already generated some decade-defining PR nightmares, god only knows how the financial side is gonna crash considering Warner's history with mergers. It's gonna be AOL all over again.

@CNschedules @cartoonnetwork The early 21st century is indeed a terrible time for WB. First AOL, then the entire company getting in debt, then the entire company struggling from the pandemic, now this.

It's clear to me that the whole Warner Bros. Discovery merger was a terrible idea from the start, and it's proving to be even more disastrous than the AOL merger from 2001. WB has not learned anything. 😒
