This follows a series of disruptions last month when X faced two outages, including a major incident in the United States that drew more than 28,000 complaints.

Frequent outages have raised concerns among users about the reliability of the platform, especially as X seeks to compete with other social media services in global markets.

Industry observers note that while occasional downtime is expected for large platforms, consecutive monthly disruptions may affect user confidence and engagement.
