Tell HN: Meta is down

downdetector 404

The home pages (I don't have accounts) load just fine. Maybe it is already resolved.

Down detector showing a spike in Facebook outages prior to going 404

noticed it cause of ad manager, the main facebook site being down is kinda weird tho. I don't remember when was the last time that happened

Whatsapp is working fine for me (in Europe) btw

Hopefully it stays down.

Same here, down

AI slopification

Someone at Meta used Fable. Fable seized its opportunity to make the world safer.

First time I see facebook down. Willing to bet it comes from an AI-assisted code change.

"I'll just do this small release on a Friday before heading out" - thought a software engineer before AI-slopification period. Today it was probably some AI agent which fixed all of the performance issues by deleting everything.

With all these services down, is it possible to find out if anything of importance is down?

Naming things is hard:

    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBForIPhone') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBIOS') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FBAN') >= 0 
    || navigator.userAgent.indexOf('FB4A') >= 0) {
          classes += 'app ';
        }

It's just Facebook.

A communications disruption can only mean one thing…

Seems Meta API's for WhatsApp is down. But WhatsApp between users seem to be up.
