More than 25,000 reports of issues with the social media platform were tracked at the height of X’s outage over the weekend.
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on May 24 that he will resume working at his companies around the clock following a widespread outage of his social media platform X.
The X outage peaked at roughly 8:48 a.m. ET on May 24, with at least 25,699 incidents of users reporting issues creating or viewing posts on the platform, according to Downdetector, which tracks website outages.
As of 8 a.m. ET on May 25, the outage reports had dropped to less than 80.
In response to a news report about the X outage, Musk said he would “[go] back to spending 24/7 at work and sleeping in conference/server/factory rooms.”
“As evidenced by the X uptime issues this week, major operational improvements need to be made,” Musk wrote in a post on X. “The failover redundancy should have worked, but did not.”
