Twitter repeatedly crashed on Wednesday as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) was set to make his presidential announcement over Twitter Spaces with the site’s new owner Elon Musk.
More than 300,000 people tuned into the announcement, the app was struggling to load for some and crashing for others.
“We’ve got just a massive number of people online,” Elon Musk said. “So the servers are straining somewhat.”
DeSantis’ campaign appeared to drop off the call at one point.
More than 600,000 people were on the Twitter Spaces at one point. Musk attempted to redirect the conversation before the event cut off again. “Alright I’d like to welcome governor DeSantis for the —” he said before the audio cut out. “This is unfortunate we’ve never seen this before,” he said.

The former president appeared on a video screen in front of two American flags with golden fringes, seated next to his attorney Todd Blanche.
A six-page order prohibits Mr Trump – the presumptive frontrunner for the Republican nomination for president – from disseminating “covered materials” on social media platforms “including, but not limited, to Truth Social, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, Snapchat, or YouTube, without prior approval from the court.”
Mr Trump also cannot disclose the names and identifying information of any personnel from the Manhattan district attorney’s office, “other than sworn members of law enforcement, assistant district attorneys, and expert or fact witnesses (other than summary witnesses)” until a jury has been selected. Mr Bragg’s office can also redact identifying information from discovery materials, according to the judge.
