Original Article
Facebook is currently having issues. According to website DownDetector thousands of user generated reports started flooding in from around the globe at just after 3:15 today.
Meta’s other service including business suite, messenger and instagram also appear to be offline with users struggling to log in. It’s thought that this will also have a cascade effect for any linked accounts for third party websites using the Facebook API for login and signup.
Instagram on Desktop is logging in but not loading any content.
As far as what’s app goes – we’ve managed to send out a message and have had a reply by voice call back.
