When will Cloudflare be back up? As apps including X and ChatGPT stop working for second time
Cloudflare, the global cloud network operating multiple websites on the internet, is currently down and affecting multiple platforms.
Currently, most platforms are struggling to be accessed. Similar to the recent AWS outage that saw multiple websites go down, this outage is now causing problems with multiple sites across the internet.
In its latest update Cloudflare says: “We are continuing to investigate this issue. We are seeing services recover, but customers may continue to observe higher-than-normal error rates as we continue remediation efforts.” There has been no confirmation on when the network will be running as normal.
AopenAI is also seeing some problems, which means ChatGPT, Sora and more are down for many users. According to the OpenAI status page, the problem has been ongoing for the past 50 minutes, which lines up well with the Cloudflare outage.
X still appears to be going through the motions, as its either seeing an error page, not being able to load any X posts or working fine every few minutes. It was back up for users for a time but it now seems to be down again.
There appear to be blips of recovery ever since Cloudflare's servers went down as of 11:48 am UTC, and Downdetector (when it's accessible) shows this. It reached a high of 4,582 reports on the status site, which means many have been experiencing issues.
