Why isn’t this on the front page? I’ve been wondering what was going on, and had to actually search HN to find it. 11 upvotes in 18 minutes is definitely front page worthy.
Because I (and I suspect many others) are tired of the Musk/Twitter drama and flag.
As a general policy, I flag all "X is down" stories, because... who cares? A random company's ops team having a terrible day does not tickle my intellectual curiosity one bit. Complete waste of space.

There was also a small previous discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34363743 (which is also not on front page though)

I've made an exception in this case and restored the original submission on this topic to the front page, since people are discussing it anyway.
