TweetDeck is down today, March 6, 2023, however it’s not clear why it isn’t working. Here’s an explanation of what is happening and why the site is showing an error code.
Why is TweetDeck down on March 6, 2023?
TweetDeck is down on March 6, 2023, likely due to Elon Musk removing access to the Twitter API for everybody who doesn’t pay him.
TweetDeck relies upon using this API system in order to actually pull everything together, and as such it currently throws up an error.
Will TweetDeck come back and be fixed?
It’s unknown as of now if there’s a timeframe for a potential fix for the error, and it’s also causing images and videos to stop loading across Twitter, along with links just not working at all. For now, TweetDeck isn’t working and might never work again.
Musk has stated that he wants people to pay him for the right to use Twitter API, with people pointing out that this would cause errors like what is happening right now.
This API error is the latest in a series of errors for Twitter, with people reporting DMs vanishing and tweets just not sending over the last couple of weeks.
