Looks like Twitter is having their first very serious SEV since the acquisition! Mass user logouts, delays loading content. My guess is that this is very related to the recent shutdown of the Sacramento DC, although I’m still not clear on how far along that process is.
Feel free to chime in below with speculation, or just tweet in the comments until they get it fixed up.
(Also! Still hard at work on the Twitter’s Orgs series - got so much material together that I’m gonna have to go org-by-org. More on that soon!)
Open Thread: Twitter Outage
Things that seem to be broken:
* Login for many people
* Users are force logged out
* Timeline sometimes failing to load
* I'm noticing very high latency loading notifications/comments, haven't confirmed with others
* _All_ ads seem to be gone for everyone (maybe a compute-saving measure?)
Also! If y'all haven't seen them yet, check out the health charts by https://twitter.com/iFred - great nostalgia for any former SREs in the building:

I'm just surprised it's taken this long. I was sure it was going to be shortly after the world cup.
