Noticed it this morning (~2 hours ago) on WhatsApp, voice messages weren't working, and still aren't.

So, code deploy or server configuration change?

They're implementing their personal data harvesting tools into WhatsApp and the sheer amount of content being pulled from their servers was too much to handle and it crashed

/s but probably true eventually

Seems like if it is affecting their services so broadly it is a server configuration change

Yup, seems like it. This is second time in a couple of months that they've been down.
