Cloudflare has resolved the recent global outage that affected X, ChatGPT, Downdetector and other major apps. Most services are now back online, though some users may still face minor issues as systems stabilise. Full details here.
A major internet disruption earlier today left millions of users unable to access several popular platforms, triggering confusion across countries. Services such as X (formerly Twitter), ChatGPT, Spotify, Perplexity, Letterboxd, Gemini and Downdetector began failing almost simultaneously, with many users seeing error notices indicating that Cloudflare was unable to load web pages. Hours later, Cloudflare has issued a fresh update confirming that the issue has been resolved and most services should now be functioning normally.
Company Says Fix Implemented, Monitoring Continues
In its latest statement, Cloudflare said: “A fix has been implemented and we believe the incident is now resolved. We are continuing to monitor for errors to ensure all services are back to normal.”
However, the company cautioned that some customers might still face difficulties logging into or using the Cloudflare dashboard, and that engineers were actively working on a separate fix for that.
According to Cloudflare’s status logs, the problem was first acknowledged at 11:48 GMT, and the incident was declared resolved roughly three hours later.
