Users started noticing problems with the site around 3:50 PM EST, and over 25,000 users in the US said they were having isses. They were having trouble getting their feeds load, getting error messages on the app, and couldn’t access their timelines.

Statusgator, which also tracks outages, confirmed that there were two spikes, and it wasn’t just limited to one area. The people who were most affected were in the US, the UK, and India. This shows that the issue was pretty widespread.
X’s AI chatbot, Grok, confirmed that the platform was not working right for some people because of a small technical problem. It stated that feeds were not showing up and errors were happening. But Grok also mentioned that the company hadn’t given an official reason for the outage, which is what usually happens when something like this happens for a short time.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen something like this happen – just a few months ago, on 26 March 2026, over 15,000 users had trouble getting into their accounts, loading their feeds, and using the app.
If we look at the numbers from Downdetector, it’s clear that most people were having problems with their feeds and about 50% of complaints were about that. Another 41% of people were having issues with the app itself, and 6% were having trouble with the website.
People are still having problems with X, even though the company hasn’t said anything about what’s going on. If you look at the maps that show where the issues are happening, you can see that a lot of users from the US, UK, and India are being affected.
