Hah, I'm in exactly the same situation. Maybe unrelated, but my data transfer from old phone to new has been sitting on "about 3 minutes" left for about 10 minutes now. Hopefully I don't run into other glitches related to this...
Got a tip for us?

Did you just forget your password? Maybe it’s saved in your icloud keychain ?
ditto literally today from iphone x 64gb to iphone 13 pro max 256gb so much issues and now that it’s done i can’t listen to apple music
Apple is rolling out this outage gradually. Please be patient if it hasn't reached you yet.
I'm looking at alternatives for cloud storage, like https://filen.io/pro
iCloud hasn't improved in years.

It's either 1. some "configuration" error or 2. an update patch. It seems these take down everything.
How am I supposed to grind out some Gauntlet races in Asphalt 8+ without my Game Center?! Those S Class cars don't upgrade themselves, you know! You gotta get earn those Epic upgrade cards over days and weeks. Puttin' in that time! My digital lifestyle has been shook.
Update:
30 seconds later I tried for 3rd time. It's working! ?♂️ ? My digital lifestyle is back on track... well kinda drift style actually... ?️

Was at the gym and my phone asked me to verify. MacBook was the same way, figured it was an outage.
I went home with Covid today thinking I was going to be able to lounge about watching my apple tv, but instead ended up wheezing my way through six hours of hard resetting five iOS devices and trying to set them all back up just to find out the server is down.
It hit me that it’s probably a sign of my generation that I’m more concerned with an apple server outage than I am with being able to breathe :/

Mine has been annoying since I use Spark for email and it keeps prompting for iCloud app-specific password entry, that I can't log into iCloud.com to generate.
Actually, the sign of your generation would be the fact that you don't have any physical media, and have to rely upon cloud services in order to watch things lol.
Get well soon!

Severe delays with Apple Music. Content, music, playlists, and album artwork it taking forever to load. Still works but incredibly slow.
Haven't experienced any issues. Watching a movie on ATV+, migrated from an iPhone 11 to 13 today for a friend, no errors whatsoever. Even used Apple Pay on my Apple Watch for dinner.
Mine (and friends) account must be on the "good" server.

This is taking too long. Still ongoing 11:48 AM TST.
I hope it gets fixed soon.

Maybe the crazy woman got into the server room ?

I think it's short for file encryption. I'm not paying for it but it is already faster than iCloud. Which I am paying for.
Nope, you're not. I still can't do anything and it's been 6 hours. And then all their other services starting crapping out one by one. Couldn't check my mail ... couldn't log into iCloud.com. They really need to funnel some of their money into server reliability because this is nuts.
I'm sorry, but not being able to check e-mail when important messages are supposed to come in has absolutely nothing to do with someone's use of physical media. I have most of my things backed up on several hard drives and this is still very annoying. iMessage is also having issues, for instance. This goes a little bit further than storing things in iCloud.
