Even before the current downtime a string was data-mined from the TweetDeck beta which referred to itself as "a feature of Twitter Blue" so the days of being able to use TD for free are probably numbered anyway.

#134Not that I particularly like Elon but people are now making a big deal out of every twitter outage as if twitter didn't spend down half of the time before Elon bought it.

#135Worth noting Twitter’s status page claims it is “operational” and no events are listed under history section for past 180-days, which is obviously wrong: - https://status.twitter.com/ * Not to mention the SSL certificate appears to be expired too. ———- EDIT-01: Appears there’s a status page just for the API: - https://api.twitterstat.us/ EDIT-02: Wow, Twitter is using Twitter to post status updates: - https://twitter…
> * Not to mention the SSL certificate appears to be expired too. Love that detail. Just the icing on the top that says "everybody who was vaguely aware of this particular infrastructure is gone."
Also weird given that Twitter is using 3rd-party service which apparently doesn’t even automatically log and post known downtime issues; service being:

Did you see the photo of the employee sleeping on the floor? I'd link it but twitter is down.
> Did you see the photo of the employee sleeping on the floor? I’ve done this. I had lots of fun—everyone, from the CEO down, was crunching—and became financially independent after it. It’s usually a sign of under-resourcing. But almost every start-up experiencing unexpected growth should be ready for it. It’s unusual at Twitter’s scale, but closed to mismanagement than abuse.
Please don’t do that. You deserve better as a worker. If a company is unable to function without infringing on the free time of their workers, that company should not exist.

It's not expired. That site is using the wrong cert (ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID).
How odd.

#138If you like graphs, I've been watching this outage from OnlineOrNot ( https://twitter.onlineornot.com/ )
Looks like it's back up, was down for 56 minutes.

On the positive side website response time has seen a dramatic improvement…
Re: Twitter was down
#140https://twitter.com Is down too, at this moment.
It's up for me, maybe a geographically limited outage?
