If you&re having issues with various Facebook -owned services this morning, you&re very much not alone.There appears to be a major outage impacting Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook itself.Update: As of about 9:30 AM Pacific the services appear to be coming back online.Many users are reporting that the apps appear to work but aren&t actually pulling anything new, instead just showing whatever they&ve got cached from before the servers went down.
Others can&t even get the page to load.Messenger messages, meanwhile, just sit indefinitely in a not-quite-sent state — so if you&re using Messenger to figure out who bringing what to Thanksgiving dinner, you might want to switch platforms for a bit.A sudden influx of Down Detector user reports suggest that the outage started at roughly 6 AM Pacific.Instagram confirmed the outage on their end via Twitter:We&re aware that some people are currently having trouble accessing Facebook family of apps, including Instagram.
We&re working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible.
