X suffers second outage in two days; Musk had earlier warned of cyberattacks

| @indiablooms | May 24, 2025, at 08:49 pm

Elon Musk-owned social media platform X (formerly Twitter) experienced widespread disruptions on Saturday evening, marking the second day in a row of technical troubles for the site.

According to Downdetector, user complaints surged around 6 pm, with many reporting errors while trying to load new posts. A common error message displayed on the platform read: "Something went wrong. Try reloading."

The outage followed a more severe disruption on Friday, when over half of the affected users were unable to log into their accounts.

Around 30% encountered app-related glitches — with timelines not loading and tweets failing to post — while 13% said the website didn’t open at all and either froze or returned error messages, according to Downdetector data.

This isn’t the first time X has faced large-scale downtime. In March, Musk had claimed the platform was under a "massive cyberattack."

“We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved. Tracing,” Musk had posted at the time, after a string of outages hit the platform.

Musk, who acquired Twitter in 2022 and also leads Tesla, often presents himself as hands-on with operations — once even attending to platform issues in a "tech support" T-shirt, while managing access to sensitive US government data systems.
