Twitter users attempting to access the social media platform on their desktops were temporarily met with error messages and were unable to tweet on the site via web browser on Wednesday night.
Thousands of users increasingly began to report outages beginning around 7:13 p.m. EST, according to Downdetector.com, a website that compiles user outage reports and places them on a graph over a 24-hour time span. Users continued to report outages more than two hours later, the site reported.
The platform’s mobile apps appeared to still function amid the outages, however, some users indicated disruptions with those apps as well.
Twitter’s desktop app appeared to be back up and running around 9:45 p.m. EST.
The company’s Twitter Status page indicated that “all systems” were operational and there had been “no incidents” on Wednesday night.
The hashtag #TwitterDown trended on the platform as users grilled Twitter’s stability.
