“Delays processing new video uploads”

On 28 October, Vimeo had delays processing newly uploaded videos for about 1 h 48 min, from 19:58 to 21:46 UTC, and its Upload component was marked as a critical outage. Vimeo's status page said uploads were completing but some videos stayed in pending or optimization states longer than usual, and that processing had caught up by 21:11, before the incident was marked resolved at 21:45. MoonPay, FACEIT and Cash App also reported problems at the same time.
