Lit Twitter

[Actingup]

Some of you will have slept through the outage, but just posting here to say that I approve of choosing to not post anything on the Lit Twitter account (and to continue to call it Twitter). Although perhaps then it's better to not mention TwitterX at all

Fingers crossed that all comes back online in good shape.

The feed won't display activity and thinks I haven't published any stories. Fingers crossed.

You should publish something. I bet folks would read it and enjoy it.

That might be all fine and pleasurable for your anti-Musk hardon, but if a website says they’re going to post status updates through some channel and then doesn’t post anything, it’s less of a political statement and more of another disappointment with the quality of its service.

This has happened to me many times over the years, and usually it doesn't last long.

There you go, serving up your crabbie patties again!

Seriously, though, communication has never been the site's strong suit, and nobody should try to read too much into it. Same old, same old.

They announced it on Bluesky. They even reacted to a joke I made.

Believe me, there is no possibility of me getting a hardon for anything Musk related, anti or pro. But I think my second sentence above addresses your comment.

I cannot access my control panel

I cannot access my control panel

You and everyone else

 

[DEFCOM5]

You and everyone else

Was not sure if it was just me or the site. Thank you for confirming this.

 

[caleb35]

My panel just loaded; it might (or might not) be back for everyone else.

 

[StillStunned]

Mine is up. Huh-huh, huh-huh!

[AStrangeDesire]

Seems like I can look at My Home again... so, maybe back fully?

 

[MrPixel]

Mine is up, as well. But... but... but... but...

In a quick test, I have discovered the centered text bug appears to be fixed!

Huzzah! Huzzah!

that's interesting - I still can't see anything post 2024 there

For real this time? There were rumours about that before you know

You must not be paying for the blue check

I stopped using twitter as soon as they got rid of the chronological timeline view and my feed started unwillingly getting filled with boosted tweets from elon musk and joe rogan... Within five days my acne cleared up and my coffee started tasting better (probably not related)

 

[BeechLeaf]

There is at least some change in display. A story I read recently where simple <hr> separators were missing is now displaying them. That was part of the centring bug.

My dearest A, your first mistake was expecting that Twitter is any sort of functional website. Its days as a source of even semi-reliable information are long past.

Yeah, I know. So far so good on three different systems and three different browsers.

I also see the centering big as fixed in my standard test case. First time I've seen it working since it broke 8? months ago.

It appears to be fixed on my stories, at least...

I used 25% width hr tags on Opposite of Jealousy, which was a huge problem because the first part of the story was a series of quick cut flashback conversation snippets, and the bug made it kind of incoherent

I must have missed those days the first time around.
