Thousands of Twitter users reported problems with the social media platform early Wednesday.
According to Downdetector, a website that tracks service disruptions, about 10,000 Twitter users reported experiencing the outage.
The disruptions came days after Twitter announced another round of layoffs over the weekend.
- Some users in the U.S. and other countries reported seeing a “Welcome to Twitter!” message when logging into the site on Wednesday instead of the usual timeline.
- The outage did not affect users’ ability to send tweets, and soon the hashtag #TwitterDown was trending on the platform.
- The disruptions were mostly fixed by late Wednesday morning.
