Is Twitter down? Links, photos, Tweetdeck appear to be broken on the app.

It's time once again for that seemingly regularly scheduled daily mishap on Elon Musk's Twitter.

On Monday, around noon ET, users began reporting that a number of essential Twitter features like links, photos, and Tweetdeck were no longer working.

Users who attempted to click on a link were met with the following error message:

{"errors":[{"message":"Your current API plan does not include access to this endpoint, please see https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api for more information","code":467}]}

It appears the problem lies with all links shared on Twitter or automatically shortened using Twitter's service, t.co.

However, that's not the only issue. Photos uploaded directly on the platform are also not loading. Users are instead treated to a blank solid grey or brown color in place of the image.

Tweetdeck users are also reporting that the Twitter-owned dashboard application is also experiencing technical difficulties.

Of course, social media platforms, Twitter included, have faced tech issues before. However, Twitter has seemingly been plagued with a multitude of issues regarding broken features and website downtime regularly since Musk acquired the platform.

These tech issues have become so normal that Musk's reaction, usually a tweet claiming that he is "looking into it," to users complaining about issues on the platform has become a meme at this point.

But, this time it seems that Musk is trying out something new.

"This platform is so brittle (sigh)," he tweeted. "Will be fixed shortly."
