Twitter CEO Elon Musk told employees to pause the development of new features following the outage, according to The Information.

Twitter users experienced issues on Wednesday in which they were told they had reached a daily limit for tweets.

The Jerusalem Post and other users received a message saying "You are over the daily limit for sending Tweets," despite the fact that it had only posted 111 tweets on Wednesday, according to Twitter analytics.

According to Twitter's Help Center, the daily tweet limit is 2,400, with "smaller limits for semi-hourly intervals."

According to Downdetector, over 9,500 users reported technical difficulties just after midnight on Thursday.
