FACEBOOK

Did you get logged out of Facebook? It’s not you. Your password is fine and you don’t need to change it. Facebook’s parent company, Meta, was suffering a service outage. Other Meta sites also experienced outages.
UPDATE 12:05 a.m.: All services seem to be back up.

UPDATE 11:43 a.m.: Some users have reported being able to get back into Facebook and Messenger, although service remains spotty. Instagram and Threads still having issues.

For a time Tuesday morning, it seemed that all of the internet was united with one overwhelming question: Is Facebook down?

The whole Metaverse was.

A technical issue brought down the tech giant websites, according to Meta communications head Andy Stone in an X post. At its peak over half a million Facebook outages were reported on the website Down Detector between 10 to 11 a.m. with users complaining about getting kicked out and not being able to get back in.
Similar issues were reported with other Meta companies such as Instagram, Messenger and Threads. Even Meta Quest headsets kicked users out, 9to5Mac.com reports. YouTube, which is not a Meta company, was also down around the same time although some users reported seeing it if they logged into their Google accounts first.

By noon, users were reporting that first Facebook and then the other services were back up. For more updates click.
