Facebook on the outage: “Earlier today, a technical issue caused people to have trouble accessing some Facebook services. We resolved this issue for everyone, and we apologize for any inconvenience.” Messages are going through for me on WhatsApp..but no blue ticks

Every time Mark Zuckerberg switches off Whatsapp, Facebook & Instagram servers just know that he's found a new way to mine even more of your data to be sold for billions.. We're his money printing machines. Let's make peace with that fact. https://twitter.com/...

I'd love to see the worldwide traffic spikes on certain sites when other big ones go down. No doubt Twitter spikes when Instagram goes down Does Facebook spike when Twitter goes down? Does Instagram spike when Tiktok is down? Does everything spike when YouTube is down?

@MKBHD Over the years we've found that FP will spike to some degree any time any other major platform goes down... The biggest come from YouTube outages unsurprisingly. I suspect each major outage sees a bit of a bell curve of divergent traffic, free and most related at the top

It would be funny if one day everyone woke up and all the social media platforms were gone except original Facebook and all you could do was poke your crushes.
