According to the users, they can send tweets but in many cases, only the author can see their tweets, given that timelines are not working.

They also said they were greeted by the message “Welcome to Twitter!” in place of their usual feed of posts.

While some users were able to tweet, others shared photos to indicate that their tweets weren’t loading on Twitter.

While Twitter is yet to put out an official statement regarding the outage, some users have revealed that they can now access the platform.

 

The outage came a few days after Elon Musk, Twitter CEO, sacked dozens of employees across sales and engineering teams.

There have been intermittent outages in recent months.

Users also complained about having problems accessing the platform on July 14, 2022.
