Most users - over 60 percent - have had difficulty watching videos, Downdetector says. Some 30 percent have had problems with the website itself, and around 1 percent have not been able to log in.
Netizens rushed to Twitter to comment on Thursday's technical glitch and see if anyone else has experienced the same issues.

Others were devastated, apparently because they have had entertained themselves on Youtube while staying at home during the coronavirus-induced quarantine.
YouTube is down since the past 10 minutes.
