Many people with large Twitter following who use Twitter as the commenting system for their website (think John Gruber) have complained that Twitter mentions ahve been reduced to nothing. It's a silent failure that no one at Twitter has mentionned or acknowledged.

Twitter has had at least one multi-hour global outage since Musk took over. This is in addition to at least one outage in Australia, plus outages of other critical services. The API outage happened before the after-the-fact announcement, login and 2FA outages kept people out of the app, etc.
For what it's worth, I cannot access Twitter right now, and DownDetector suggests I'm not alone, so we might be having another outage starting just now.
Twitter still has like 1000 heavily dedicated (either because they love elon or getting fired means getting deported) which means they can fight a lot of fires and keep things going.

Considering the waves of resignations that hit the automated content filtering and bot mitigation teams, it's no wonder they are getting desperate.
