  • Social media platform X suffered outages on Thursday afternoon
  • Outage tracking site Downdetector.com showed more than 37,000 reports of outages in the US
  • The platform was impacted by an outage earlier in April as well

Social media platform X experienced a major outage on Thursday afternoon, leaving thousands of users unable to access the platform. According to Downdetector.com, an outage tracking site, more than 37,000 outage reports were logged in the US as of 3:54pm ET.

Widespread outage

The outage appeared to be widespread, with Downdetector showing concentrated clusters of reports on both the East and West Coasts. This suggests the issue originated from X’s servers rather than a localized internet or network disruption. The platform suffered a similar outage earlier in April, which impacted service for several hours.

Tracking the outage

Downdetector tracks outages by compiling status reports from various sources, including user-submitted problem reports. This allows the site to quickly detect and measure major disruptions in service. As of 7:54pm GMT, Downdetector showed over 37,000 reports of problems with X, indicating a significant outage.

Cause still unclear

The cause of the outage is still unclear. X has not released any statement or explanation for the disruption in service. Previous incidents were linked to server issues and bugs from recent software updates deployed by the company.

Users vent frustration online

With X down, many users took to Twitter and other social platforms to vent their frustration over the outage. “X is down again? Come on, get it together,” complained one user. Others used humor and memes to pass the time while waiting for X to come back online.

Service restored after several hours

After approximately four hours of downtime, service on X began to be restored Thursday evening. The platform slowly came back online, although some users still experienced intermittent access issues. X acknowledged the outage and said engineers were working on fully restoring service across all regions and users.
