Memes, Jokes Run Riot After Twitter, Tweetdeck Has a Brief Outage

Several features on Twitter were down Wednesday, 2 October, the platform said, with users from Japan to India to the USA reporting they were unable to log in, use the mobile app or see direct messages.

"We've been experiencing outages across Twitter and TweetDeck," the social media giant said in a statement, without giving a reason for the disruption.

We've been experiencing outages across Twitter and TweetDeck. You might have had trouble Tweeting, getting notifications, or viewing DMs. We're currently working on a fix, and should be back to normal soon.
