Twitter crashes globally for 1 hour

If you had trouble loading tweets minutes ago, you’re not the only one.

Starting around 1 pm Nigeria time, tens of thousands of users reported outages on Downdetector, a site chronicling web outages.

About an hour later, the outage seems to be resolved, Tech Crunch reported.

The outage extended to mobile, iOS and Android, also affecting services like TweetDeck, checks by GoldMyne TV showed.

While Twitter’s status page indicated that the site was fully operational, numerous users across the globe still experienced outages. Though Twitter’s app and website were able to load, the platform wouldn’t load any new tweets or notifications.

Users who logged out before the outage were also unable to login while the crash lasted.

About an hour after the problems began, Twitter Support posted an update.

“Some of you are having issues accessing Twitter and we’re working to get it back up and running for everyone,” the platform said.

Twitter experienced a similar issue in February, which also lasted for nearly an hour.

A global outage is far from Twitter’s biggest issue these days. On Tuesday, the company sued SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk in an attempt to force him to follow through on his $44 billion promise to buy the platform.
