Re:Slack was experiencing an outage by renewiltord on Thursday May 20, 2021 @02:16PM (#27224963)
Actually, the synchronized downtime means that everyone is down at the same time so that's way more preferable to having your own independent downtime. There's no coordination loss because everyone is explicitly off-grid for this period. The common signal is advantageous. And if you're a vendor, then your customers are sympathetic if they're also suffering at the same time.
