Instagram and Facebook, the social media giants under Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, are experiencing a widespread service disruption, leaving users nationwide unable to access the platforms.
The outage began late on Tuesday, leading many frustrated users to turn to alternative social media platforms, notably X (formerly Twitter), where they vented their frustrations with humor-laden memes. Meta has not yet issued any official communication regarding the recent outage.
