Meanwhile, people are complaining about not being able to send DMs on Instagram. One person said: "Is messenger down? Can't send messages" while another said: "Is anyone's messenger down and can't reply to people on marketplace?" The outage also apparently affected many users in Europe and other countries including Australia and Mexico. Instagram seemed to have the most problems, followed by Facebook and Messenger. Users in New York City, Los Angeles and Phoenix Arizona appeared to have problems with the apps, according to DownDetector, the online site tracking outages. READ MORE Prince William and Kate Middleton rumbled 'copying' Harry and Meghan at COP26 People are also claiming they can not send messages to people on Messenger or reply on Facebook's Marketplace. We are working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible and apologize for any inconvenience.Social media users claim that Meta services are currently down including Facebook and Instagram.ĭownDetector reports that more than 3,000 people are saying they can not use the platform properly with some claiming that they can not DM or message friends. In a statement to The Independent, a Meta spokesperson stated that they “are aware that some people are having trouble accessing Messenger, Workplace Chat and Instagram DM.
Still, according to users, these apps’ online sites have dodged the technical issues. In the United States, the outage is more evident in cities like New York, Seattle, Houston, and Dallas while other countries like Mexico, Australia, and most countries in Europe are presenting the same problems with Meta’s apps.
According to Twitter account NetBlocks, the problem is coming from “a technical issue at parent company Meta’s MQTT endpoints preventing messages from going through.” This also means that a technical error in one app might represent the failure of the other. The main issue comes in the direct messaging features of these apps that this year merged Instagram and Facebook into one more user-friendly messaging platform. The outage comes a month after the company’s seven-hour crash that affected the platforms completely, including Whatsapp, and two weeks after Zuckerberg himself announced the rebranding of the company to Meta. The failures began this afternoon, although it’s not a complete shutdown but rather some errors in some of the apps’ features.
Social media users around the world are reporting an outage in Zuckerberg’s platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger.
