Twitter Is Down

They lowered some of the rate limits last night to the point where it was very easy to hit them. Seems like they kept doing that, but broke something, because my timeline says I exhausted my allocation of 900 hits to the API and I have to wait about a full day before I can try again.

Given that it is happening at the half year shift you have to wonder if it’s the non-payment of bills that is catching up with them

I have tried using my two accounts on the web. Everything works fine at the beginning.

After a few likes, retweets, and searches, it starts to slow down and finally shows the "Rate Limit exceeded" message.

They cannot start charging users for "fast-paced" browsing, adding that to Twitter Blue benefits.

I’ve only experienced somewhat minor bugs throughout the last eight months, including some that have always been there (what’s with the site’s inability to load Quote retweets?), but this has got to take the cake. Guess the “Twitter is doomed” narrative is into something.

I got the rate limited message too. First outage of Twitter ive ever experienced.

Right during the riots in France. Gives me the chance to try other apps
