  • X, the former Twitter, has experienced a worldwide outage as of 12PM on Monday CAT.
  • This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.
  • The outage seems to have only lasted for about half an hour.

Since you seem to know what platform have they moved to generally?

Most of them have gone to BlueSky. A few are on Mastodon but rarely as their primary (sadly). A lot of artists have gone to places like FurAffinity, Pixiv, and to a lesser extent DeviantArt.

Unfortunately a lot of them have just resorted to being on Patreon, which is unfortunate.
