"Twitter may not be working as expected for some of you. Sorry for the trouble. We're aware and working to get this fixed."

Platformer reported Thursday that this outage happened because data from Twitter's internal service for these rate limits was deleted by accident, and the team which worked on that service had left the company in November.telling them to commit to working"extremely hardcore," or leave the company. It told staff they needed to work"long hours at a high intensity" in order to"build a breakthrough Twitter 2.0.

Pathetically lame and beyond ridiculous attempt at sounding anti-Elon 😂

Employee 'accidentally' deletes data after being let go. No, we have no idea on the details of wether it was just an honest mistake or what happened there.

Accidentally?

No bias here at all. 😂 Maybe they failed over to a new cluster or moved all to AWS or maybe it was just a bad code push?

'accidentally'

I’m reading this on Twitter. So someone must have been left to fire it back up.

'[Musk] has also introduced dramatic cost-cutting measures, like ... withholding rent on the company's offices'. Not paying your bills isn't cost-cutting, it's just fraud.

Yeah it’s called a rollback lol

Is this a credulity test?

Another game news outlet in action with a hit piece. ,,

Not gonna click the clickbait but the moment Twitter went down there were other websites failing too. Another point is that before Twitter was too bloated to move faster therefore deployments are safer. When you try to move fast expect things to break.

Twitter went down?

Sounds like Elon missed one person he should have fired.

What’s wrong with business insider? Everyday you put all fake news against elonmusk . If you don’t like Twitter, you are feel free to leave.

Your anti elonmusk bias is ridiculous

Yeah, right. That's called employee sabatoge.

Shambolic.
