X is 'pausing' encrypted DMs

"X users are temporarily unable to send encrypted messages while the platform makes improvements. The pause isn’t linked to their upcoming XChat app, which could offer enhanced security features like PIN-protected chats. Previously, encrypted direct messages were only available under strict conditions but had limitations, affecting their reliability as privacy tools. Meanwhile, X has been dealing with technical issues caused by an Oregon facility fire that disrupted in-app inbox functionality last week."
