X (Twitter) is down in worldwide outage.

The data at downforeveryoneorjustme make it appear that "only lasted for about half an hour" is BS. In fact, they appear to be having problems again this morning.

Looks like Elon was chewing on the wires again

Someone did the world a favor.

Couldn't happen to Mastodon.

insert ‘oh no, anyway’ meme here

Oh, that's why xcancel was returning 502

The world had peace for 30 minutes.

In unrelated news, hate is reduced across the world.

Nothing of value was lost.

I'll celebrate when no one considers this to be news.

Who the fuck is still on that nazi shithole

Let it burn! It's not our problem.

If we’re lucky it’s forever.

Elon's blaming DDOS. You know I heard that the people who bulit Twitter did a great job figuring out how to handle those. Gosh, I wonder what ever happened them?

I still can't believe he nuked the Twitter brand. It was like the most valuable part of the platform. X is such a dumb, generic nothing name.

Oh no. So anyway, tonight we're having a stereotypical American meal that takes 25 minutes off your life; Sloppy joes, macaroni and cheese, and potato salad. It's quite good, everything made from scratch since I don't have a job anymore. How about you?

Looks like yippidy dipshit is on a great losing streak, space x, the recession, now this.

Good riddance

Do it again!

This was bound to happen, someone was going to attack the Nazi propaganda platform formerly known as Twitter at some point.

• This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.

Didn't Twitter go down multiple times for similar periods of time not long after Musk fired everybody? Or am I just hallucinating wishful thinking.

Half an hour is still pretty huge for a site like Xitter.

I though nitter finally broke.

I had a cheeseburger for dinner. It was….. okay.

Everyone strives for 5 9s, but musk aims for two 8s.

DDoS attacks are illegal, but what is the legal amount of times a person can call a website? I'm sure enough people doing just a few calls per second couldn't get a person into too much trouble. Has the law even defined the difference?

God I hope there's some engineer somewhere at X quietly sabotaging all of their services.

Should plant a timed zip bomb on the servers that autoruns on reboot

And nothing was lost.

Wonderful! May it stay that way forever.

Now this is the kind of X news I'm okay with reading.

Although I can only imagine what this means for the US since Musk is treating the government like one of his businesses.

And nothing of value was lost.

"Something went wrong. Try Mastodon."

But wait, isn’t this some sort of official government communication channel now? Sure there must be uptime agreements and penalties for such a thing, right? Right?!?

Reddit was like this, even way before the enshittification.

It happened so often on Reddit, it wasn't even news.

Oh no!

Anyway...

What can we do to keep it like this forever?

I wouldn't notice

Good. Sadly it was fixed.

And the owner wants to "automate" the US government with AI.

The idiots are in charge.

It would be poetic if the cyber attacks would be coming from Ukrainian hackers.

Just imagine what this saves in hosting bills

oh no, anyways . . .

Can we get a permanent outage of that goddamned website, pretty please? For the sake of humanity?

There have been so many instances where i wanna see replies of a post or more stuff about a person, but then that mandatory account log in wall kicks in.

Funny enough, Anonymous is claiming it was them.

I hadn't noticed.

Looks like annonomus is saying they took it down.

I love that for them

Make it permanent next time.

Elon fired the maintenance guys yet again?

Wooooooo!!

Oh no.

Anyway…

Elon must be experiencing withdrawal symptoms right about now.

Feature, not a bug

Is tempting to check if it's still down. But wom't touch this ugly domain.

Oh, so that was it?

I just thought my Twitter Piko app was outdated 😅
