Yeah, this was the confirmation I needed that it's "not just me."

What do you mean? Every daily "outage" [0] Claude is taking a quick "break" from answering questions just like a human would. (Given some here continue to compare LLMs to humans). Last week, Codex was just "unresponsive" and was also taking a break. [1] If any chatbot is not responding for more than 24 hours, then it is on vacation.

Definitely is happening. A good problem for them in a way if it's due to adoption, but you'd think with all the money they pull and with how much experience they've had so far keeping things relatively stable it would be better than it is.

They are definitely stretching uptime.
