It’s time once again for that seemingly regularly scheduled daily mishap on Elon Musk’s Twitter.
On Monday, around noon ET, users began reporting that a number of essential Twitter features like links, photos, and Tweetdeck were no longer working.
Users who attempted to click on a link were met with the following error message:
{“errors”:[{“message”:”Your current API plan does not include access to this endpoint, please see https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api for more information”,”code”:467}]}
It appears the problem lies with all links shared on Twitter or automatically shortened using Twitter’s service, t.co(Opens in a new tab).
However, that’s not the only issue. Photos uploaded directly on the platform are also not loading. Users are instead treated to a blank solid grey or brown color in place of the image.
Tweetdeck users are also reporting that the Twitter-owned dashboard application is also experiencing technical difficulties.

Of course, social media platforms, Twitter included, have faced tech issues before. However, Twitter has seemingly been plagued with a multitude of issues regarding broken features and website downtime regularly since Musk acquired the platform.
These tech issues have become so normal that Musk’s reaction, usually a tweet claiming that he is “looking into it,” to users complaining about issues on the platform has become a meme at this point.
But, this time it seems that Musk is trying out something new.
“This platform is so brittle (sigh),” he tweeted. “Will be fixed shortly.”
