Meta Down

99•reportinglurker•1h ago

Meta is currently down, facebook, insta. The outage is not registered on https://metastatus.com/ , possibly implying a greater outage.

downdetector 404

limaoscarjuliet•1h ago

How about downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector.com ? Yes, it does exist.

vallassy•1h ago

How about https://downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector.... ?

limaoscarjuliet•31m ago

:-) Yeah, this is officially boring now. Still fun though!

ericmay•1h ago

The home pages (I don't have accounts) load just fine. Maybe it is already resolved.

jarm0•1h ago

Nope, all dead for me.

ericmay•1h ago

I just tried again and I can load the home pages for both sites without issues from Ohio in a private Safari window. Don't have a way to upload a screenshot.

Down detector showing a spike in Facebook outages prior to going 404

jarm0•1h ago

In what situations does it even go for 404? Same for Messenger and Instagram. Never seen that before.

nvj2008•1h ago

Yeah strange, maybe too many people hitting down detector at once

Here's an alternate

The domino effect is fascinating to watch

jarm0•1h ago

downdetector seems to be working now again, spikes clearly visible.

duc_minh•1h ago

It shows 404 for other sites as well, youtube, reddit, discord, tiktok,...

mesmertech•1h ago

noticed it cause of ad manager, the main facebook site being down is kinda weird tho. I don't remember when was the last time that happened

santiagobasulto•1h ago

Whatsapp is working fine for me (in Europe) btw

everdrive•1h ago

Hopefully it stays down.

eleventen•1h ago

Could you imagine? I know it won't happen but what if we get a statement that they suffered a catastrophic data loss and full service couldn't be restored for a week or something. It would be a modern miracle.

rocketpastsix•1h ago

dont threaten me with a good time.

nvj2008•1h ago

Makes me want to delete Facebook

rocketpastsix•1h ago

I did back in 2020. I still have instagram but I removed it from my phone.

nvj2008•58m ago

I imagine that just have been liberating?

Hugsbox•1h ago

Wasn't there a multi-day outage some number of years ago? Or at least an entire day, or something like that. People were acting like it was the end of the world. I vaguely remember something like that happening, many moons ago...

apavlinovic•1h ago

Same here, down

Claude fix outage. No mistakes.

molszanski•1h ago

I wouldn't credit AI before we know more

Maybe our hero is a human

amirhirsch•1h ago

Someone at Meta used Fable. Fable seized its opportunity to make the world safer.

hackerbhi•1h ago

Yes bro

brudlekukk•41m ago

Truly. Like an agnostic, dyslexic insomniac staying up at night wondering if there really is a dog.

supergilbert•1h ago

First time I see facebook down. Willing to bet it comes from an AI-assisted code change.

lenerdenator•1h ago

Not sure if that's better or worse than the time in 2021 when they had some sort of glitch that brought down their systems and locked people out of their data centers.

The market thinks this company is worth over a trillion dollars. Remember that.

hsuduebc2•42m ago

Their applications are riddled with bugs. This is generally not that uncommon.

mgrunwald_•33m ago

Ironically, their Ad/Business tools are the worst offenders.

I need to use them but I feel like I'm in a perpetual state of fighting their software.

jarm0•1h ago

"I'll just do this small release on a Friday before heading out" - thought a software engineer before AI-slopification period. Today it was probably some AI agent which fixed all of the performance issues by deleting everything.

anon567•1h ago

The world is now a more peaceful place now that Facebook and Instagram is down.

sgt•1h ago

With all these services down, is it possible to find out if anything of importance is down?

dvh•1h ago

Naming things is hard:

    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBForIPhone') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBIOS') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBAN') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FB4A') >= 0) {
          classes += 'app ';
        }

Probably ~20y of technical debt represented there

hidelooktropic•1h ago

It's just Facebook.

It's not DNS. There's no way it's DNS. It was DNS

geocrasher•1h ago

The DNS Song seems appropriate. Even if it's not DNS in this case.

According to https://metastatus.com/ only "Facebook Ads Manager" is having problems.

Hugsbox•1h ago

So the whole thing doesn't work if they can't deliver ads? LOL

hsuduebc2•36m ago

herpacin•1h ago

Top Google result for "Is Meta down"

Gilego14•58m ago

newman1999•1h ago

Try to use more AI. Aand sacked engineeries

newman1999•1h ago

dgellow•1h ago

My bad, I bought a $META share, sorry

Gilego14•59m ago

when will this fixed hope it takes at least 1 week

marcelbundle•57m ago

Bruuhhh, I'm getting cooked because clients think it's our app's fault, and Meta doesn't even update their status page.

What's next? They close bug reporting?

Oh wait... they already did.

Shin4343•52m ago

Server down so goated it revealed a new site(for me)

hsuduebc2•39m ago

Do not use meta shit software nor their algorithmic feed. This is one of the few pages that is worth to lurk daily.

Shin4343•51m ago

What's this website Reddit type shi?

ashirviskas•36m ago

Better, take a look around. No random mobile focused redesigns to hit a random KPI.

Text only design also invites to focus on the discussion itself. It also has proper moderation.

gardevoir•51m ago

this is a good news day

gardevoir•51m ago

not crying

gardevoir•49m ago

down detector down? tripping

larararararrara•46m ago

even down detector isn’t working, it says server error page not found, 404

yomismoaqui•41m ago

I remember that time when FB went down and engineers couldn't even enter the building to fix it.

"Sheera Frenkel, a tech reporter for the New York Times, told the BBC part of the reason it took so long to fix was because "the people trying to figure out what this problem was couldn't even physically get into the building" to work out what had gone wrong."

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58800670

hsuduebc2•38m ago

HELLO to every new account! This is one of the few places on internet that are worth lurking!

unaib•26m ago

Let's hope they didn't accidentally lay off any of the people that would be able to take it back online. That would be sooo terrible.
