Is Twitter/X Down

It's not down, it's having a software update.

Yes, it's acting like I'm a completely new user. All of my tweets are gone, although 'reactions' are still there.

A major outage at 10PM PST is not fun :\ sorry Twitter ops.

Alas, it is a photo of a dog. Or at least it was on its last outage a few months ago.

Well it's partially up, meaning you can see 'the site' but my posts, replies, and evidently at least some other people's posts and replies are completely missing.

Even people who have paid for the service evidently.

This kind of thing in a hypermedia application sure is problematic, because for example I have made lots of articles out on other services with embeds of tweets in those articles when I guess it would be more trustworthy to take screenshots.

Huh, maybe some essential people to keep this kind of thing from happening were recently let go.

This is a bigger screw up than that time my X account got suspended! https://medium.com/luminasticity/x-suspension-news-44664b6b2...

I suppose there will be a lot of people making backups of their content now.

If there was someone clever in control there they would add a feature that it would only give you the backup since your last backup (with notice of course) and you would have to actually request a FULL backup that would probably save the servers a lot of work in the coming weeks. But there seems to be an ongoing narrative that there isn't someone clever in control there.

Yes...all my timelines are gone. Cannot see anyone else timeliness. Treating me like a new user with a welcome message to set up my account. Also, the text as well as the like button, RT has shrunk and is very tiny. Only thing working is "Spaces"
