Complaints from users ranged from tweets not loading to error messages.
"Account profiles load, but no tweets load. Multiple attempts "retry" fail," one user said on Down Detector.
"The opposite for me, I can see comments and stuff, but accounts won't load, just asking me to retry," a second user replied.
"Tweets are dead now. I can't view posts. RIP," a third user remarked.
