• 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.

    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.

      He is really really dumb person, so it is not surprising he does stupid stuff. Look at cybershit, tesla robot (driven by people remotely), anything he did last year… He is fucking dumb idiot.

      You are really surprised by a guy who wanted to name his car series S-E-X-Y and had a temper tantrum when model E was taken and he could not “buy” it.

      It’s going to be so easy for him to turn that x into a swastika in a couple of years though. Its what’s known in tech circles as IED “iterative evil design”

        I like referring to it as xitter, pronounced “shitter”. What were once tweets are now steaming piles of xit. Or someone taking/dropping a xit.

      I’m glad he did, now there is a clear line from when it was acceptable to when it wasn’t.

      The USA probably won’t rebrand when its a fully fascist state.
