So, looks like the Bird Site is down. Tweets seem to largely be impossible to send, either directly, as replies, or via other platforms such as Tweetdeck. Fail Whale, 2023!

Terrible timing, given there's a #NintendoDirect airing right now! (Previously scheduled tweets seem to be coming through, given Nintendo's tweets timed for the trailers and announcements on the stream are appearing, but not much else!)

@mattkamen thought it was just tweetdeck, the whole things down?

@VGPMedia Yup, for about an hour no one could tweet, reply, or retweet unless you scheduled a tweet to send through the main Twitter website. If you tweeted through the app, you got "failed to send" but if you tried on the site without scheduling, you got "daily tweet limit reached", so they're clearly testing a per day tweet limit for free users.
