Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Washington, D.C. and nearby locations:

  • HeySheckie Sheck'quon 🤷🏻‍♂️ (@HeySheckie) reported from Bethesda, Maryland

    @ESPN your iPad app is literally one of the worst playback devices I have ever used. It’s like watching video on a 1994 AOL dial up. app.

  • bucketOfBuckets Connor McGowan (@bucketOfBuckets) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @aklingus There was like a 6 month period in the mid 90s where AOL chat rooms were a fun place to hang out… and when you started a convo with someone you’d have to rapid fire emails back and forth because there was no private chat or instant message system

  • ShirleyImMilk G. Double D. (@ShirleyImMilk) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    Were talking about “What cultural item are you older than” at work. We’re slow. So far, I’m older than MTv, AOL and VHS cassettes. This is a fun game to make me feel like I AM ACTUALLY THE OLDEST IN THE STORE. I don’t like this game... I’m taking my slap wraps and going home.

  • Helen_Highly HelenHighly (@Helen_Highly) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @Doc_Harding @Nerienis Perhaps their sudden popularity (and unprepared infrastructure) will destroy their success, like it did AOL back in the day with the busy-signal fiasco. 🫤

  • gatlingxyz Tavon (@gatlingxyz) reported from Huntington, Virginia

    I'd known about #DnD but never played. Not even the geeks/nerds in my school played, as far as I know. And most of my schools have always been predominantly Black, so there was no representation. (I did do a lot of text based RPing on AOL tho)

  • KarenCarolina84 Karen J (@KarenCarolina84) reported from Coral Hills, Maryland

    Why is my @aol email not working? 😢

  • StepToTheMic Kodi Seaton (@StepToTheMic) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    Some of you have never spent a summer messaging a complete stranger on dial-up AOL Instant Messenger and it shows. 😫 #LoveIsBlindNetflix #loveisblind

  • RichardH1818 Richard Hanson ✡ (@RichardH1818) reported from Merrifield, Virginia

    Email server Recommendations anyone? AOL has been the host for mine--but now they've made it hard to use. They now put different, and very distracting, balloons at the beginning for each message. I don't want a message service that makes it harder.

  • RAVENSBlood5220 💜🖤Blood Girl🦇Raven💜🖤 (@RAVENSBlood5220) reported from East Riverdale, Maryland

    The Invasion angle should've been the most epic moment in Wrestling. Without all the major stars from WCW, it never lived up to those expectations. Very disappointing. There also was no Twitter to explain those AOL contracts for those stars too. #RuthlessAggression

  • KarenCarolina84 Karen J (@KarenCarolina84) reported from Coral Hills, Maryland

    @aol email is still down

  • Jimbo3DC Jimbo (@Jimbo3DC) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @woolfhound That was precisely my experience with NYT, and it reminded me if when I had similar experiences trying to cancel my AOL or Bally's membership. Tacky and desperate.

  • JoelBurner1 📚The Paige Turner (@JoelBurner1) reported from Kensington, Maryland

    @MysterySolvent A fart horn. A small confederate flag & lapel pin (she would never ever wear in public.) And, the phone numbers of, Ron Watkins - "Q", Jim Watkins, AOL emails & Reddit names. Also, Madison Cawthorn's mothers cell.

  • MissInformation Heather Perram Frank BA (@MissInformation) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @annasproul I was one of a handful of producers in the Dulles, VA AOL newsroom on 9/11. The campus was evacuated after a plane that departed from the adjacent airport slammed into the Pentagon. I’ll never forgot having to sit on my hands because they were shaking so much I couldn’t type.

  • perk713 DatDudePerk (@perk713) reported from Springfield, Maryland

    If you never heard of Cingular Wireless, Wachovia Bank or AOL..Address me as Unc

  • AgarWoodCapital TTT Nguyen (@AgarWoodCapital) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    There can be no risk-free opportunity in sports, business or life. Failure is catastrophic bc of a lack of preparedness. Sears, DC redskins, Blackberry, AOL, & NYC knicks were at the top of their game, but they failed because they were afraid to fail. #failureispartofsuccess

  • laurenskahn Lauren Kahn #BringOnVaccineMandates! 😷 (@laurenskahn) reported from McLean Hamlet, Virginia

    banned. It happened to me over 10 years ago on the old #AOL travel message bds. I simply set up my own website & never involved myself with travel bds again. Some of the bullies became monitors on travel advisor's bds. W/o proper monitoring, sites become the domains of bullies.

  • Messe3Christina Christina Sheryl Messenger (@Messe3Christina) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @AOLSupportHelp I have been trying to get to deactivate the my account but when I called Customer Support, they’d told me that I would not be able to deactivate it for a year!! 😭😭😭 Please help me!!

  • JaydeColer Jayde Willow Coler🏳️‍⚧️ (@JaydeColer) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    He IS a security risk but I’d say he’s more like Netscape (old as shit and useless) or the old AOL software (kept around far longer than should have been because people liked the one catchphrase it had)

  • MarkBjorge Mark Bjorge (@MarkBjorge) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @ebooksyearn Even their status-title “network” is anachronistic in the modern telecom world. They’re like AOL back when it was a closed ecosystem.

  • SkeezeeWonder Anfernee Harlemway (@SkeezeeWonder) reported from Suitland, Maryland

    @freshleebaked Nah **** this I’m going back to AOL groupchats

  • DenebolaPhoto Denebola42 (@DenebolaPhoto) reported from North Ogden, Utah

    Got pulled." Lol I think he followed me to the edge of North Ogden. Wow. You must really hate Mexicans. Reminds me of AOL with a güero told me to "turn that Mexican shit off" just because he had good hearing and could hear the sound bleed through my Sony Discman headphones.

  • ChocolateMilf Jolié like Angelina👄𓋹🇩🇪🍫🦄 (@ChocolateMilf) reported from Houston, Texas

    She was previously snail mailing us shit. Today she sent out the info for our next reunion and it says that since email is our main form of communication, anyone who wants an update needs an email address and can get a free one on MSN or AOL 🧐

  • AnhnaAlex Ty Anhna (@AnhnaAlex) reported from Augusta, Georgia

    @Ebony_QT That’s just lack of culture lol I was born in 98 and I can hear the damn aol dial up

  • ColtsTubaGuy Ray Bridges (@ColtsTubaGuy) reported from Indianapolis, Indiana

    @chicksonright The reason it's taken Pelosi so long to transmit the documents is that they are still using AOL. The signal is still buffering!

  • mzshamar23 MzShamar (@mzshamar23) reported from San Antonio, Texas

    Wheew lawd... these babies I mean I'm not that damn old but Lady Gaga,Spice Girls...😭😭😭 AOL had me in tears as well.

  • eddiemac3356 Ed McCabe (@eddiemac3356) reported from Manhattan, New York

    @Pivotal_Capital This is like buying $AOL every time the stock went down due to a service outage. Guaranteed money maker. Buy the virus (or whatever it is). Lol

  • DWheely Darron W (@DWheely) reported from Macomb, Illinois

    Folks ain’t know what AOL was lol I wouldn’t have known off them ******* but dang he ain’t never heard of it lmao
