Viewly Offline? Anyone else having problems uploading video posts?

Shoutout to fellow Steemians and those developers who may know.

Is View.ly completely inaccessible for now? I have been trying to both
(a) access the web address and also
(b) play the posts I previously made

For over 24 hours now I have had zero success. When I checked with other Steemians posts made on/for
View.ly I noticed the same thing happening, but yet when I checked "Hot" and "Trending" and "New" post categories,
I cannot find any one else posting about this.

I know View.ly is still "alpha". Is this the problem?

Also, I notice DTUbe is considerably slower today, especially in last few hours. Some posts fail to upload, others show huge lag time. I have used 4 different pieces of hardware to ensure it is just not my laptop, I used an iPhone, iPad, MacBook and Windows laptop. Same problems on all four.

I do not wish to "whinge" or sound complaining, both of these new developments have completely revitalized my interest in posting and of Steemit.

I just don't want to keep trying to make posts if the "system" is presently down.

If anyone can help or make an announcement, that would be awesome.

Viewly is backed by Steem, if Steem is up the Viewly data is available, regardless of the web domain view.ly status. Check out @useruploads for most Viewly content. The IPFS is what should store most of the data in the event Viewly goes down.

Ok, I'm guessing because I am such a little minnow that bigger fish don't even see my posts yet, but that is cool, I'll just keep swimming away down here, chomping on all the seagrass until I get a bit bigger, just doing my thing. .. and with a whish of my tail I'm off :)

Thank you for confirming this @heimindanger I had a feeling it was probably something along those lines.

Hi, I love what you have achieved; I wouldn't mind helping to work on this with you if you need any help. I can program anything, I am just not well versed in programming steem yet. I guess the reliability and speed would improve with the more IPFS servers that are available.
