No fb for over an hour now, literally just realised how much I am on there, hopefully this helps to let go a bit.

Same. WhatsApp too. Was worried I’d been hacked but it’s widespread.

PurpleDaisies · 04/10/2021 19:20

Might actually have to do something useful…

FluffyBooBoo · 04/10/2021 19:20

It's working for me. Are you using the website or three app?

Their shares are tanking and a whistleblower has handed over all sorts of damaging documents to the WSJ. FB is having a very bad day. Smile

There are widespread outages of the app and website.

You'll survive. I've been off Facebook for over a year, best thing I've ever done. All Facebook brings is family drama, drama and upset. Life's better without it.Smile

FluffyBooBoo · 04/10/2021 19:22

I retract that statement.

The app makes it look like it's working - but as soon as you try to read comments, they won't load.

GrandTheftWalrus · 04/10/2021 19:22

The app looks like it still working but it's not. WhatsApp is the same. I do spend a lot of time on there but I moderate a few groups as well.

Oh I wondered what was happening, I can see posts but links aren't working and I can't read any of the comments. I thought it was my internet connection.

FluffyBooBoo · 04/10/2021 19:23

I hope they get it sorted. I use both for my ou courses, as the tutor group forums are all but dead...

It's global apparently

Oblomov21 · 04/10/2021 19:24

FB and WhatsApp not working.

GrandTheftWalrus · 04/10/2021 19:26

One of my groups I moderate have moved the chat over to telegram for the time being but obviously because fb is down we have nothing to do!

Ooh I didn't realise it was Whatapp aswell! No wonder DH isn't reading my messages about dinner. I'm on Mumsnet as it seems to be the other thing working Grin

What's the AIBU?

I lived nearly 60 years without Facebook or any SM.

We won't die!

SmellyOldOwls · 04/10/2021 19:35

I thought everyone was just being really quiet today. Got a few chapters read of my book Blush

SirChenjins · 04/10/2021 19:35

FB, Messenger and WhatsApp Shock Nothing else for it, I’ll have to phone MIL and listen to the latest update on her UTI and a blow by blow account of what Irene said. Shoot me now.

Its whatsapp, facebook and instagram and they are all part of the same group. Mumsnet isn't! Grin
Asleanna · 04/10/2021 19:35

WhatsApp is what I'm missing most! I have several groups on WhatsApp and I live alone so enjoy chatting on the groups with friends and family!
Never mind. Enjoying maid on Netflix instead !

Robotcustard · 04/10/2021 19:35

Instagram doesn’t seem to be working too, but they’re part of Facebook now I think.

Missed the bit in the OP where she says she's going to die!

Where's this world heading???

Wazzzzzzzup · 04/10/2021 19:36

Dailymail is properly dramatic about it (loving their drama) calling it catastrophic 😂
