Instagram not working! The Meta social network has stopped loading for a few minutes, and both Facebook and Threads also seem to be affected by the outage
Instagram seems to be going through some problems in the last few minutes. The social network would have suffered a crash that affects several countries around the world. Users from different parts of the planet have reported problems with the social network through websites such as DownDetectorwhere it is possible to see a peak in notices related to service failures.
Likewise, as is usual whenever a fall of this type occurs, other social networks such as X (formerly Twitter) have seen how the hashtag #InstagramDown has begun to gain strength, and at this time it is already one of the topics of the moment in some countries.
Facebook problems prevent you from logging in and uploading new content
According to user complaints, the problems on the Meta servers began around 16:00 this Tuesday, March 5 and are preventing users from accessing their Facebook, Instagram and Threads accounts. However, it is important to highlight that none of the accounts have been hackedbut rather it is a generalized drop that is affecting users in a good part of the world.
On the other hand, the instant messaging via Messenger and Instagram direct messages are also not working at the moment. WhatsAppfor its part, seems to have escaped the crash, and users of the app can continue using the Meta messaging tool without any problem.
For now, Meta (company that owns Instagram) has not commented on the matter of the problems, which would also be affecting the company’s other social networks, such as Threads or Facebook. However, little by little the platforms have begun to function normally again, and in a short time the service should be completely restored.
