Twitter Problems?
Can’t seem to load threads on the official mobile client. Others report issues as well: https://downdetector.com/status/twitter/ https://downdetector.com/status/twitter/
Would be ironic if it was cache related in light of this post yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30295542 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30295542
- motyar 5y agoyes, can't send tweets.
- mwill 5y agoAlso experiencing issues. Weirdly on mobile I'm still getting like/RT/reply notifications but I can't actually open and load the tweet I'm getting notifications on. Edit: What's weird/unexpected is I just got a "twitter is better on the app" popup...ON the app? I'm not even sure how that would be possible, does the twitter webapp/mobile app share that much code?
- fooey 5y agoMy mobile works, but I can't get anything at all to work on web
- mdoms 5y agoDown for me
- icey 5y agoYep, was logged out of some accounts and able to log back in on the web, but no timeline is loading.
- anacleto 5y agoConfirm.
- new_guy 5y agoDown here too.
- throwawayxxf 5y agoCrazy thought: if there was to be a major event (say a Russian invasion of Ukraine) would taking down Twitter, which seems to have a high proportion of journalists and politicians on it, not be a smart move? The few hours of confusion it would buy might be valuable. It’s most likely just a run-of-the-mill outage, but the thought crossed my mind.
- jagger27 5y agoI’ve heard crazier ideas.
- Hamuko 5y agoI'm not seeing the value. Basically foreign civilians would be a couple of hours late to know about a foreign war?
- guerrilla 5y agoMeanwhile pissing a lot of people off, turning more against them and making it harder for their own propagandists. Seems like a net negative.
- _moof 5y agoOccam's razor says it's the same thing it's always been: a bad release or a capacity problem.
- AzzieElbab 5y agoI am more worried about US/Canada border
- pfist 5y agoVisiting Twitter.com on my desktop shows an error page and refreshes the page every second or so. Definitely seems to be something on their end.
- jdkjs 5y agoHaving the client make a request every second is a sure way of staying down in case of overload
- machiaweliczny 5y agoI wonder if connected to LostArk deployment problems
- lemoncookiechip 5y agoSame here
- 8K832d7tNmiQ 5y agoUnable to login to twitter just now.
- AzzieElbab 5y agoweb is not working, login is not working, lists are not working, cant send/reply. mobile feed works and shows only old tweets
- patio11 5y agoAlso seeing it here in Japan and has been reported by my coworkers across multiple continents. The twitter.com site is also broken; not accepting cookied sessions nor logins.
- mig39 5y agoI can read and like tweets, but can't send new ones.
- thesneakin 5y agoMust be a Friday deploy.
- favourable 5y agoInternet Snow Day!
- sva_ 5y agoInterestingly, if you go on the search page and search something, it shows the post just fine, even if you click on it. But if you then reload the page, it doesn't work https://twitter.com/search https://twitter.com/search Some people are able to post. Seems like third party stuff through the API though. https://twitter.com/search?q=%23twitter&src=typed_query&f=live https://twitter.com/search?q=%23twitter&src=typed_query&f=li...
- sebst 5y agoYes can confirm from the Netherlands
- dorianmariefr 5y agoThere was a @paulg tweet saying that if there are multiple explanations for an event, choose the most boring one. Very much agree edit: found it on Twitter search thanks to another comment > Between two possible explanations for an event, prefer the more boring one.
- capableweb 5y agoWhich is known as "Occam's Razor" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor), often said in this manner: > when you have two competing theories that make exactly the same predictions, the simpler one is the better. A theory which origins can be traced as far back as ~1300.
- totally 5y agoIf things had been different it could have been called "Occam's Tweet"
- _moof 5y agoSeems like lately we've gone from "when you hear hoofbeats behind you, don't expect to see a zebra" to "if you see a horse, it's definitely a centaur."
- LordAtlas 5y agoWell, my productivity just went up.
- cosheaf 5y agoThis is why centralized platforms are a bad idea. In case of an outage people have no idea what to do other than panic.
- eculic17 5y agoyes
- jeffbee 5y agoTwitter is so weird. They have a big technical staff but they never, ever launch features, leading people to believe all the work is being done on reliability and efficiency on the backend, but at the same time they have total outages regularly and don't turn profits.
- guerrilla 5y ago> never, ever launch features They launch features all the time: the new UI, longer tweets, reply hiding, moderating who can reply, spaces, etc. It's a long list.
- pmlnr 5y ago> Can’t seem to load threads Threads should never have been a thing, so maybe people now start writing articles instead on their own platform.
- beepbooptheory 5y agoNE U.S. here, cannot reproduce any of this at all. App and browser are fine, cleared cache and cookies, can still log in, search, everything. A regular quantity of new tweets keep appearing.
- throwanem 5y agoMaybe us-east-1 is the region that stays up this time for a change...
- ukie 5y ago
- yitchelle 5y agoIt was down and it keep erroring. I logged out and log back in. Now all good for me. I am in Cologne, Germany.
- scrame 5y agoSounds like a great opportunity to not use Twitter.
- taubek 5y agoYep, it is down for some users. https://techcrunch.com/2022/02/11/twitter-is-down-2/ https://techcrunch.com/2022/02/11/twitter-is-down-2/
- haunter 5y agoAmazon's f2p game Lost Ark was supposed to launch 90 mins ago but they delayed it, most likely related
- capableweb 5y agoSeems it got delayed because of deployment issues: https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/launch-update https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/launch-updat... > Due to deployment issues the Lost Ark launch is unfortunately delayed. We hope to have this resolved in a matter of hours, and we appreciate your patience. [...] Off-topic, but what a bland and generic MMORPG. Is there any unique selling point for the game at all?
- haunter 5y ago>Is there any unique selling point for the game at all? Fluid combat + isometric view. Basically plays like Diablo/POE but without the loot bloat (instead you get the random gear progression). And the underlying mechanics are akin to any other theme park MMO. Tbh it's a pretty fun game as long as you don't care about competing for the top spots with the pay-to-progress elements
