Cloudflare down, affecting major outage worldwide including X and more

Wondering why your feeds aren’t loading? Apparently, Twitter X began experiencing a major outage, with tens of thousands of users reporting issues. According to status-tracking site Downdetector, problems began around 7 PM in the Malaysia time zone, when over 400 reports flooded in. Both the mobile app and web version were showing error messages like “Posts aren’t loading right now” or just old posts from hours ago.

 

Likely Cause: Cloudflare Network Issues

While X has yet to publish a formal statement, speculation points to an issue with Cloudflare’s global infrastructure. Cloudflare itself flagged that its network was “experiencing issues,” which could explain why X and many other sites were affected.

 

What Regions and Platforms Were Affected

The outage was widespread. Users across North America, Europe and other regions reported identical symptoms: inability to load posts, failure to refresh timelines, and general service disruption. The issue affected both the X mobile application and the desktop/web version simultaneously.

 

Definitely Not the First Time

This is not the first time that X crashed out; the same goes for Cloudflare. Fun fact, Microsoft had an outage a year ago, causing KLIA, AirAsia & flights around the world to pause temporarily. Cloudflare’s team is probably working to resolve the issue as we speak. Stay tuned for more trending tech news at TechNave.com.
