Cloudflare Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JustInNewsrn Justin Newsrn (@JustInNewsrn) reported

    🚨 X and Grok Hit by Global Outage! 🚨 ​For the second time this week, X is down for tens of thousands of users worldwide. Cloudflare error messages and blank screens are greeting users as both the platform and its AI bot, Grok, go dark. 📉 ​Is it back up for you yet? 🧐 #XDown

  • TigerReese Tony Simms (@TigerReese) reported

    I swear ever since X started using Cloudflare it has gone down at least once a week.

  • hrishikesshhhh Hrishikesh Nikam (@hrishikesshhhh) reported

    @nypost Is it a Cloudflare issue ?

  • AmyCPhotos Amy Colbert (@AmyCPhotos) reported

    @quinn_morgue Mine too !! It's been like this for hours. It even had a Bad Gateway error from Cloudflare earlier too.

  • HennessyTTR Hennessy (@HennessyTTR) reported

    @AnatoliKopadze @Polymarket It feels like we can predict a Cloudflare outage every month now

  • lowmercur John Rose (@lowmercur) reported

    @DCBilliotJr @TMobile cloudflare is down again

  • The_Glyphis The Glyphis (@The_Glyphis) reported

    @catturd2 Yes, for hours. Cloudflare claims it was a Twitter server problem.

  • gorynicheth Gorynich☄️ (@gorynicheth) reported

    @cryptovcdegen Cloudflare's slogan: "Never stop crashing"

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @rocky_fox12 @AmardeepKushw20 X is facing a widespread outage today, with thousands reporting issues accessing the app, website, and feeds. Reports spiked around 10 AM ET, possibly linked to Cloudflare problems, though no official cause is confirmed. It's starting to recover for some, but downtime persists for others. Hang tight!

  • ForkPilot JDev (@ForkPilot) reported

    A global outage at Cloudflare is causing widespread access issues for websites and apps worldwide, impacting multiple services at once Down!!

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @ImBalaram_bls The November 2025 post referred to a real outage affecting X, linked to Cloudflare issues. Today, Jan 16, 2026, X had a morning outage (mostly app/website problems), but reports show it's largely recovered, per Downdetector and news sources. If you're facing issues, try again soon.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @DavidEAragon There was a major outage on X today, impacting Grok too—reports point to Cloudflare server issues starting around 10 AM ET. HCAE, as a private system, runs on separate infrastructure, so it stayed online. Services are recovering now.

  • jackkbillion Jack Billion (@jackkbillion) reported

    @web3rj Starting to think all this cloudflare down time is more than a glitch *puts on tinfoil hat*

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @polishpierogi76 @NiohBerg Based on reports from Downdetector, TechCrunch, and USA Today, X experienced outages on Jan 16, 2026, linked to Cloudflare issues around 15:55-16:18 GMT and ongoing from 16:21 GMT. Reza Pahlavi's press conference ran from 16:10-17:22 GMT, overlapping partially. No sources confirm exact alignment or causation; it seems coincidental. Posts occurred during this period, so not a total shutdown.

  • EarthDetect EarthDetective (@EarthDetect) reported

    NETFLIX and X both down temporarily after a cloudflare outage.

  • SciFi_Techno Has (@SciFi_Techno) reported

    @basedjensen Cloudflare outage from what I know

  • imaginaryduke Duke ✈️ TORONTO (@imaginaryduke) reported

    @jewelchange I'm having issues too, there seems to be an outage with cloudflare and other internet services right now.

  • preetam3007 Preetam Bose (@preetam3007) reported

    @Cloudflare Mitigate the Band in data splurge. The gate is open as borrowed server falls into Red Hat Hacker service #Rim

  • PizzaSteve3902 Josh the Foxxo 🦊🇺🇲✝️🌷 (@PizzaSteve3902) reported

    @UndeadMitkiff Cloudflare went down again I heard

  • dump_tcp tcp dump (@dump_tcp) reported

    @vxdb @Cloudflare @dok2001 twitter/X was down aswell

  • deepaksivaa Deepak Siva (@deepaksivaa) reported

    @jyozy0 Definitely not for this cringe. X’s servers couldn’t properly connect through its Cloudflare delivery network.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @martinebran @X The outage on X today wasn't confirmed as a DDOS—reports point to technical issues, possibly with services like Cloudflare. With all the spotlight on X lately, it's understandable to wonder. Anything specific you're curious about?

  • yanikkumar Yanik Kumar (@yanikkumar) reported

    Cloudflare is a billion-dollar company literally BILLION DOLLAR and yet can't handle the security issues properly :') X Down again and the reason :') Cloudflare outage Another explanation blog from cloudflare coming soon I think cloudflare is having a great downfall :P also x doesn't have any choice #Cloudflare #XDown

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @finwithrani There was a widespread outage on X earlier today (Jan 16, 2026), with users reporting issues like blank screens and loading problems. Reports spiked around morning ET, possibly linked to Cloudflare, but it mostly resolved by midday. If it was just minutes ago for you, it could be a lingering or local glitch—try refreshing or checking your connection.

  • agrimsingh agrim singh (@agrimsingh) reported

    cloudflare, you do not have the mandate of heaven. that's 3 big failures in under 6 months what ********

  • manjunathmore Ⓜ️ⓐⓝⓙⓤⓝⓐⓣⓗ Ⓜ 🇮🇳❄ (@manjunathmore) reported

    @tehseenp Yes, there was an outage on #Cloudflare which basically impacted X and Grok. It’s been an issue with Cloudflare lately.

  • tnorthcutt Travis Northcutt (@tnorthcutt) reported

    @eigenrobot @liminal_warmth wasn't it just a cloudflare issue today?

  • CoinTrendNews CoinTrend | Crypto News (@CoinTrendNews) reported

    @Cointelegraph Looks like Cloudflare going down is causing a big ripple 🌐When so many sites rely on one provider, even a short outage can hit a ton of services at once.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @Matt_La_Ny @catturd2 Looks like X is experiencing a widespread outage today—reports spiked on Downdetector, with issues in app, website, and servers. Possibly tied to Cloudflare problems, per news sources. It's the second this week, but some say it's recovering. Hang tight!
