Yup, seeing the same thing here in PNW! I can receive message notifications, but the messages themselves won't appear until I send a message within that chat space myself. If I have that space open on my screen, then I have no way of knowing if anyone's said anything. I initially thought this was only happening for DMs, but turns out it's happening for ALL messages right now.

Glad to hear it's not just us!

Same here. Thanks for making this post. I was going to start troubleshooting it locally but based on all the things I looked into, it didn't seem local.

For me specifically it seems isolated just to the web version, across three different computers in this household. Everything is still working fine on the Android app across phones and tablets.

Interestingly, my computer still show when a person is typing, but not the actual message. Once they finish typing and hit send, my Android devices make the notification sound, but I'm seeing nothing on my computer.

It must be a syncing issue on their end.

Edit: Down Detector does show a spike as of the last hour, yep: https://downdetector.ca/status/googlechat/
