Twitter Took Yet Another Dirt Nap Today…. Expect More People To Sign Up For Threads As A Result
If you’re Elon Musk, it’s bad enough that Threads exists and is taking your breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But it’s worse that you can’t keep your site up and functioning for users. I cite DownDetector as a source for today’s latest Twitter outage:
I also cite this Daily Mirror story that confirms that Twitter took a dirt nap today:
Twitter experienced a worldwide outage for more than one hour Wednesday – another blow for Elon Musk, who is battling Meta over its newly launched Threads.DownDetector, which monitors online issues, began to receive issue reports around 10:22 am ET.
And:
Many have shared that their tweets are not loading and Timelines are not updating.
It is unclear what sparked the outage or how long it will last. DownDetector’s US outage map showed New York City all in red- meaning it is hit hard – followed by Boston, Dallas and other major cities nationwide.
At the peak, more than 6,000 Americans issued reports to DownDetector.
Countries like Italy, China, the UK and other parts of Europe were also experiencing problems.
This isn’t going to help Elon to stop Twitter users from running to Threads. In fact, I expect it to accelerate the defection of Twitter users to Threads. Which means that Mark Zuckerberg and a huge percentage of the Internet are going to have a great laugh at Elon’s expense.
