    Oh no - my competitions!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭ceekay74


    Yeah, WhatsApp isn't downloading videos or pics for me. Messaging OK though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Instagram is also experiencing issues.

    I would have expected Facebook to have its different products on different infrastructure, for the sake of business continuity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,884 ✭✭✭Rattlehead_ie


    Instagram seemingly with the same issues. Unable to load pictures properly.

    Noticed it too. Also had cloudflare issues yesterday that I saw after were widespread


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,881 ✭✭✭Peatys


    So this is what it was like before the constant bombardment of WhatsApp porn.

    Kinda nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,685 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Same here on messenger.... No pictures showing up. Will have to brush up my writing skills instead :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,313 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    Hopefully it will be fixed soon

    Maybe someone should switch if off and switch it back on again?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,166 ✭✭✭Fr_Dougal


    It was crazy allowing FB to buy Whatsapp and IG.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,211 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes






    IT HAS COME!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,126 ✭✭✭✭Gael23


    Is Instagram down for anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 625 ✭✭✭Jenna James


    Something definitely up with IG.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat

    Instagram and WhatsApp are owned by Facebook. So, if any or all of them are down or flaky, it is likely to be an issue with a central server.

    As a result, a lot of the content you are currently seeing on any of your devices is coming from cache. So, new content is probably not going to load properly if at all.

    It’s a while since I’ve seen such a major platform be out of action for so long


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,291 ✭✭✭✭Gatling


    At least we have boards

    Issues over 5 hours ongoing now. I'd be delighted to see the back of the whole FB platform tbh. Utterly toxic creepy organisation.

    Find it interesting that the issue is with images across what used to be 3 separate platforms. They obviously integrated them at some point for reasons unknown. As someone else mention for continuity it would have been better keeping them separate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,313 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    It's back to normal now

    Thought it was my WiFi/4G that was causing it, thankfully not.
