Rumor has it that Elon fired so many people who were essential that it's impacted Twitter's uptime and stability. I've also heard that he isn't paying bills, either.

Eh. Reddit crashes and goes offline every other day.

has it ever happened, do you think there it's never crashed on you? keep in mind you're probably not on it 24/7 (hope not anyway)

I've never seen it down personally, I've only read claims that there have been outages since Musk took over.

The way twitter was run you can't hold either against him without knowing the context. Twitter was a cesspool and most of those people needed to be fired. There are also endless leftists brainwashed by anti musk propaganda looking for any way they can to take a swipe at him. I would expect a lot of them to try to overcharge, knowing he wouldn't pay, just so they can say he didn't pay.

Bottom line, it is foolish to trust any rumors about someone who triggers so many just by existing.

I don't trust rumors, I was just putting it out there. These rumors are from covers on the left, is my suspicion. I'm sure the deep state is seething at their lost of control, so they have to gin up rumors to bring him down.

Rumor has it that people who aren't terminally online don't notice twitter downtime

also twitter was formerly a honeypot for shill rumors and the vestiges of that remain definitely so don't believe everything you read as a rumor

I'm terminally online, and not ashamed about it. I too, haven't noticed any downtime with the site, but then again I rarely check it unless a comment is linked. I fucking love the intertubes!

When has twitter been down recently?

Yeah, not paying bills until you absolutely have to is a pretty common tactic by big business.

There were reported outages that I read about, but every time I go on the site, it's been up, so I don't know. I don't automatically believe anything I read online these days unless I witness it for myself.
