This is the best summary I could come up with:
Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, suffered global outages for just over an hour on Thursday.
According to Downdetector.com, which tracks outages by collating status reports, more than 47,000 US users faced access issues with X and X Pro.
The hashtag #TwitterDown started trending within minutes of reports of the outages emerging.
Since Mr Musk bought the platform, it has been suffering from a loss of advertising revenue.
The company has since sued a left-leaning pressure group, Media Matters for America, which made the accusation.
Last month, Elon Musk slammed advertisers that left X, saying they would kill the social media platform.
