Twitter appears to be making a comeback for some users after experiencing an hour-long outage that affected its app and website on Thursday.
Individuals attempting to use the social media platform were met with a message that read: “Tweets are not loading right now. Try again.” According to Downdetector, users began reporting the outage around 8 a.m. ET. About an hour later, service began to return.
Twitter’s status page offered no information during the outage, showing only the message “All systems operational.”
The global outage came at a tumultuous time for Twitter, which has sued billionaire Elon Musk in an attempt to force a $44 billion US buyout of the company.
Twitter was notorious for outages in its early days, but as it grew the problems became less common. However, it suffered a disruption earlier this year, in February.
