Overview

  • Users globally have reported that notifications on X are delayed by up to 12-14 hours or not functioning at all.
  • Many timelines on X have stopped refreshing since May 8, with users unable to see new posts on mobile or web platforms.
  • The issues appear to stem from a server-side bug, but switching devices or browsers has not resolved the problem.
  • Downdetector has shown an increase in outage reports, while X has yet to officially acknowledge the disruptions.
  • Elon Musk has tweeted about unrelated timeline features but has not addressed the ongoing technical failures.
