Downdetector has logged over twenty thousand reports of service disruption affecting X users in the US, merely days after the widespread outage due to Cloudflare issues.

Merely days after a Cloudflare disruption hit X, among a whole bunch of other websites, the platform is experiencing service outage once again. At the time of writing this article, thousands of users have reported that the app and website are malfunctioning for them.

We just checked the website and the mobile apps across Android and iOS, and the feed is failing to refresh. The issue is apparently localized to certain pockets, such as the US. In India, where this writer is currently based, features such as sharing a new post, sending a direct message, and checking the notifications feed are working just fine.

How big is the outage?

Users are also experiencing disruption in the UK, Brazil, Canada, and Australia, but to an increasingly smaller extent compared to the US, as per the Downdetector database maintained by Ookla. Notably, the official X Developer Platform Status page says there are no ongoing issues, and all systems are operational.
