Twitter just came back up

I just tested and I can reply, retweet and tweet now. All set.



Ryan Goodman ✔@rgoodlaw

Twitter is experiencing an outage of some sort.

No new tweets.
No retweets.

Only tweets that get through appear to be previously scheduled ones.

Downdetector shows a spike.



I can't reply or retweet. Anyone else having issues?

With downdetector showing a jump in reported issues on twitter, I can't be the only one.

He may have thought there were too many tweets not supporting him, and since he's King of the U.S. now...

And it kept not going through. I just read that nobody can post new Tweets and only scheduled tweets are getting through. Lol, at least I can take comfort in knowing that Trump must be going crazy not being able to Tweet. Cue conspiracy theories...
