A breakdown of the issue reported that 50% of users were unable to use the app, 33% faced problems with the website, and 17% were unable to log in. The social platform issued a response to users after reports of its outage, adding that the platform was “taking a short break between rounds.” The brief messages also added that the platform was offline due to a server issue, assuring users that it would “be back soon.” Meanwhile, Letterboxd’s official X account updated users about the issue on X an hour ago, responding to users’ posts that the platform was down for some “planned server upgrades.” In another recent post, the platform added that the upgrades were “nearly done.” However, many users flocked to X to complain about the outage, with the latest tweet about the issue posted an hour ago. One user tagged the social platform’s X account and asked it to fix its servers as soon as possible, as they had the funniest one-liner review to post about a movie they watched. “letterboxd is down and i currently have the funniest one liner review i need to post please fix @letterboxd.” Several netizens lamented about the social platform being down, with one user calling it their “13th reason.” Meanwhile, others wondered why the platform was facing outages frequently. Letterboxd was down last week as part of the mass Cloudflare outage On November 18, 2025, an outage on Cloudflare resulted in the shutdown of multiple social platforms, including X, Letterboxd, and ChatGPT, among others. Users logging into any of the affected sites noted that the platform was down due to an “internal server error on Cloudflare’s network,” asking users to “please try again in a few minutes.” Letterboxd’s official X account also warned users about the outage in a post at the time, writing: “There is a current issue with Cloudflare, which impacts our site and numerous others. We are awaiting updates from them about their ongoing outage. Back soon!” Less than an hour after the post, the account offered another update, adding that the platform was back online. In another update, Cloudflare added that “the issue has been identified and a fix is being implemented,” continuing that it has “made changes that have allowed Cloudflare Access and WARP to recover. The statement added: “That caused some traffic passing through Cloudflare’s network to experience errors. While most traffic for most services continued to flow as normal, there were elevated errors across multiple Cloudflare services. We do not yet know the cause of the spike in unusual traffic. We are all hands on deck to make sure all traffic is served without errors. After that, we will turn our attention to investigating the cause of the unusual spike in traffic.” Letterboxd is currently back online as of this writing.
