We already were one of the first to [detect Twitter going down](https://technosports.co.in/2022/12/11/twitter-goes-down-this-time/) in India at a sharp 7 PM IST and now as we say, it’s been over an hour, and the popular social media platform is down. While we do not have any specific reason for so but this seems an outrage for severe reasons because Twitter is one of the finest in terms of its reliability.

Not only in India, but also in many other regions, people have started reporting the same on [Downdetector](https://downdetector.in/status/twitter/). In India, thousands of people have reported this on Downdetector and it seems to be one of the most massive outages ever that too of Twitter itself.

Finally, we can tell that Twitter is back up again and people are again able to use it just like it was normal. Previously, when you try to open [the social media platform homepage](https://twitter.com/home), it’s showing nothing and a weird page of a poodle sitting in a chair shown instead of the actual social media page being reflected instead.

As the outage seems to have been fixed, a lot of users again have taken Twitter as a meme machine to post with #TwitterDown:
