Is Twitter down? Thousands of social media users report connection issues

The popular social media site Twitter appears to be down for users, as many cannot access their accounts or see any updates. When trying to access Twitter, the error message 'Something went wrong. Try reloading' appears.

It's caused thousands and thousands to search as to why this is the case. It appears to be a sitewide problem, with around 7,000 Twitter users in the 15 minutes between 12.45pm and 1pm on Thursday (July 14) afternoon trying to find out what is going on.

Tweetdeck, a tool used to monitor different aspects of Twitter, is also not working, and the error message 'this page isn't working, tweetdeck.twitter.com is currently unable to handle this request' appears. It is unknown how long this has been an issue for, or when it's likely to be fixed.
