    My Twitter account was hacked recently as well. A seemingly impossible hack: randomly generated password stored in a self hosted password manager accessible only from my wireguard network. I log everything and no signs of access from an IP outside my normal range. The email is also self hosted with a randomly generated password stored on an external device (not password manager since email is more important).

    I suspect a third party app has been compromised. https://help.x.com/en/managing-your-account/connect-or-revok...

    Specifically, the only app authorized on my account was Twitcasting (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TwitCasting).

    The attacker seemed to have used it to add additional apps onto my account and control it without having my password.

    Is there a chance that your email for owned as well and the notification has been filtered/deleted?
