“Messages not sending” “Page not displaying” This problem occurred yesterday (October 5) at around 11.50 am when Facebook and its services, including Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, went down.
This news was confirmed by DownDetector, a website that monitors crashes. The site shows that all of the above-mentioned social services have experienced a large number of problems today:
- Facebook and Instagram: More than [20,000 users] reported the services to be offline.
- WhatsApp: more than [14,000] users reported the service offline.
- Messenger: over [3,000] users reported the service offline.
After this incident, the platforms have taken a stand and apologised on their official Twitter pages, saying, “We’re aware that some people are experiencing issues with WhatsApp at the moment. We’re working to get things back to normal and will send an update here as soon as possible.”
Twitter users have been teasing them during this time, posting a series of stunt pictures for fun.
This is not the first time this has happened, but hopefully, Facebook can get better and better, so we all can keep posting Story and posts!
