Twitter—er, sorry, X (formerly Twitter), is down. At least intermittently. I started writing this piece once I noticed the issue on my end: I tried loading the site in Chrome, and after a few moments, I got a blank screen. I tried refreshing again, and again, the site returned no results. I swapped to my phone, and lo and behold, the site was working. So, back to my browser, and yes, it works! Another refresh, however, and blank results again. Yikes.
Something is going on at Twitter HQ, and maybe it’ll all be fixed by the time this goes up, but at the moment, you might not be able to load your tweets. It’s a funny turn of events: The last time a major social media network went down, it was on Meta’s watch, as Instagram, Facebook, and Threads all refused to load. At that time, every flocked to Twitter to check in and laugh about the situation. Now, will people flock to Instagram, Facebook, and Threads to repay the favor to Twitter?
As I move to publish this, the site appears to be loading for me again. Hopefully, it sticks. But considering X, formerly Twitter, is a skeleton crew these days, it isn’t hard to imagine there being more problems like this going forward.
