As of now, Twitter.com only partially loads for me. An hour ago, I was reading the President’s Tweets. Something is happening. DDOSed?

Could be an “over capacity” heavy load due to Hunter Biden news. Seems plausible, except I expect Twitter has enormous backup capacity.

Many theorizing it’s Twitter making expedient changes to their censorship system, to stem the outbreak of devastating Biden news (major media isn’t reporting on it, but social media is abuzz and our would-be overlords want it stopped).

The main page is up for me but my feed just says “Something went wrong” with a Try Again button.

Mass purge?

I think twitter is pretty complicated behind the scenes. Meaning a little glitch could crash it. There made it complicated, the fact they can intercept links like the new york post article and reroute it in real time on the entire platform is proof. Couldn’t even send in in a direct message.
