X Outage Hits Globally
X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, has experienced a significant outage, leaving users unable to access the site or its app. The issue, which appears to be a technical problem, has resulted in a blank screen for many users, while others have encountered Cloudflare error pages. However, it’s essential to note that the problem seems to be originating from X itself, rather than a repeat of recent Cloudflare technical issues.
The outage has been reported globally, with users from around the world experiencing difficulties in accessing the platform. According to Down Detector, a website that tracks online outages, there was a substantial spike in reports of problems at X around 3 pm UK time, or 10 am eastern time. The issues have affected various ways of accessing X, including its website and mobile apps.
This latest outage comes amid widespread criticism of Elon Musk’s platform, which has been facing numerous challenges in recent times. The frequency and severity of such outages can have significant implications for users who rely on the platform for communication, information, and networking. As the platform works to resolve the issue, users are advised to check the official X status page for updates on the outage.
