Twitter was down late on Wednesday for multiple users, with most of them reporting issues with the social media platform's website, according to outage monitoring website Downdetector.

Users on the micro-blogging site saw an alert saying “Something went wrong. Try reloading." Twitter also acknowledged the issues.

More than 6,000 user reports indicated issues with Twitter as of 9:40 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time (0140 GMT Thursday), about 93% of those being related to its website, according to Downdetector. That number came down to less than 70 user reports in a little over two hours.

Twitter did not specify what had caused the outage but acknowledged that profile tweets were not loading for some web users and that they worked on a fix.

Downdetector tracks outages by collating status reports from a series of sources, including user-submitted errors on its platform.

Twitter had faced a similar outage in April, when over 40,000 users had reported that the micro-blogging site was down. While the issue today was fixed in a matter of minutes, in April, it took Twitter over 24 hours to fix the outage issue.
