Meta platforms—Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp—faced widespread technical problems impacting access through both web and mobile versions. The company acknowledged the issue via X (formerly Twitter), attributing it to a technical malfunction.
Meta assured users they are actively working to resolve the problem and apologized for the inconvenience. “We are aware that a technical issue is affecting some users’ ability to access our applications. We are working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible and we apologize for any inconvenience,” stated the company, founded by Mark Zuckerberg.
The disruptions prompted immediate reactions from internet users, who reported the failures and humorously shared memes about the situation on X, showcasing their creativity amidst the inconvenience.
