- X, the former Twitter, has experienced a worldwide outage as of 12PM on Monday CAT.
- This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.
- The outage seems to have only lasted for about half an hour.
Looks like Elon was chewing on the wires again
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.
Someone did the world a favor.
Fascists value compliance and ideological fervor over competency, so naturally all fascist led faction experience a competency crisis sooner or later.May this happen more often.
Couldn’t happen to Mastodon.
insert ‘oh no, anyway’ meme here
As you wish.
I came here looking for it, so I may as well follow through on the prompt.
I couldn’t figure out how to post a gif so I appreciate it!

Lemmy uses pretty standard markdown, so this works in lots of forums besides lemmy.
I see. I also just discovered in Mlem that the little toolbar when composing a post can be scrolled left to right. Thanks for the info!
Oh, that’s why xcancel was returning 502
nitter.net is back, by the way.
Yaaay!
The world had peace for 30 minutes.
No. You see Twitter was keeping them contained. This is like the power going out at Jurassic Park.
Arkham Asylum grid failure
The bomb’s payload is exposed. I can use the power winch, to trigger a controlled explosion.
Let’s gooooo. Take that garbage site out
What can I do to help the cause, even though I don’t have a Twitter account and only used it for porn drawings in the past?
Nothing of value was lost.
In unrelated news, hate is reduced across the world.
Remember when Russia had all those cyber attacks and suddenly, a huge chunk of Reddit stopped spewing hate?
I wonder how it affected the TERFs on tumblr…
That place is just flabbergasting nowadays. Click almost anywhere and you’re greeted with colorful descriptions of jews and any other kind of bat shit overt comicbook bad guy levelf of absurd racism. Anywhere. What is Twitter’s utillity even?
I’ll celebrate when no one considers this to be news.
I assume we’re in a similar boat so let me assure you: no, you won’t - because we wouldn’t even realize it happened.
Only after s few months one of us will recall this thread and be like “oh, yeah. Twitter. Seems really dead finally. Good.”
And to be clear I expect they person to be you because my memory is awful.
Let it burn! It’s not our problem.
Who the fuck is still on that nazi shithole
Nazis, I imagine.
Remember kids, only nazis support nazis.
I was just talking to a friend who’s very anti-nazi (at least, that’s what he says), told him that by staying there, he’s feeding the nazis. He says that he’s the resistance working from within lol. People would tell themselves all kinds of stories for convenience.
Ask him if he’d go to a nazi bar, and start a fist fight.
I mean, there’s no comparison. Punching Nazis is always cool, Twitter is just talking to them, which never is. You and fifty friends go on Twitter and dunk on Nazis all day and you’re still just at a table talking with the enemy. Take fifty friends to a Nazi bar and throw punches, you’ve just improved the neighbourhood.
And bots
Even the porn creators and erotic artists have left.
When you’ve lost the porn it’s game over man.
The Tumblr Effect
HEY! tumblr is still fun to use.
Since you seem to know what platform have they moved to generally?
Most of them have gone to BlueSky. A few are on Mastodon but rarely as their primary (sadly). A lot of artists have gone to places like FurAffinity, Pixiv, and to a lesser extent DeviantArt.
Unfortunately a lot of them have just resorted to being on Patreon, which is unfortunate.
Asking for a friend…
bluesky. Its all on bluesky.
Nazis, people who aren’t bothered enough that a Nazi owns it to leave it for Bluesky, and bots, lots of bots.
Nazi’s
If we’re lucky it’s forever.
Says it was only 30 minutes in the description. Kinds weird they’re telling us about it and not including thst bit in the title.
They’re busy, collapse the data center support columns.
