The social media platform X from Elon Musk owned Musk achieved a short failure on Saturday morning, although according to tens of thousands of users, the website could not use the website.
According to the Analytics platform Downdetektor, around 25,000 users attributed problems with the platform that collect data from users to monitor problems with various platforms. Around 21,000 users reported problems shortly after 8:30 a.m., according to the analysis platform.
The problems seemed to be largely dissolved until 10 a.m., but some users had intermittent problems with the platform until around 11 a.m.
It is the second time in less than a week that users experienced problems with the platform after X also experienced a failure on Thursday.
“As the problems with the term this week, important operational improvements must be made,” Musk wrote in response to a contribution about the Saturday failure to X.
“The failover -redundance should have worked, but not.”
“Back to the expenses around the clock at work and in sleeping in conference/server/factory rooms,” he wrote.
Tesla and SpaceX's billionaire founder also said that he must be “super focused” on the companies because we have critical technologies.

X did not immediately answer CNBC's request for comment. Additional information on the cause of the failure was not available.
The website has had a number of widespread failures since the purchase of X, formerly Twitter, in 2022.
In March, the website experienced another failure that Musk attributed to a “massive cyber attack” at the time.
“We are attacked every day, but that was done with many resources,” wrote Musk in a post at the time.
