Thousands of users on the X platform are facing significant service outages, with disruptions lasting over 24 hours. Reports from users indicate numerous challenges including delayed message loading, lagging timelines, and the need to repeatedly refresh pages to view certain posts. Data center issues, possibly stemming from a fire at a nearby facility, have been identified as contributing factors according to Downdetector, which shows an increase in user complaints starting at 2:12 AM UTC+8 on Friday. X’s official engineering team confirmed that decreased service performance is linked to a data center interruption and are actively working to resolve the issues. While the exact cause remains unclear, Wired magazine reported that a fire occurred at a data center used by X near Portland, Oregon, on Thursday.
