Ooh, good idea. People can go build something against the Twitter API! Oh wait!
I'm absolutely going to keep enjoying Musk's comeuppance. In this, consider me a traditionalist. As the Greek tragedies show, people have been enjoying the just punishment of hubris for thousands of years.
You can relish in the idea of Twitter having technical issues as if it hurts Elon in some tangible way, but the fact is he could pull the plug on it tomorrow… simply shut Twitter down entirely. Take the entire value of the company as a personal loss, and give everyone working there $1m for their service.
And still be the wealthiest individual on the planet.
He could do it another 5 times and still be a billionaire.
Yes, I’m aware his net worth doesn’t mean liquid assets but the point remains.
I’m pretty sure those are supposed to be moral lessons, not misery porn. But hey, you seem to openly accept the idea of enjoying another’s suffering, and I admire that kind of honesty. I hope it doesn’t end up causing you misery.

Advertisers, the one group Elon is desperately trying to accommodate, will care.
