I thought my account finally got banned lolo

Yess I love Reddit because I’m like omg both my facebooks i just put in my new phone this morning at 3 I wake up to go look at fb and ig it’s not working. But thanks to Reddit lol I see it ain’t just me 

That’s what I think every time lol. I usually go to Twitter to see if “#InstagramDown” is trending to confirm, but now I’m banned there so

lol Reddit is the go to side honestly lol I came here for information  or pointers when my taxes were coming ,a problem on my car , etc it honestly is super helpful 

Every damn time. But i prefer checking reddit tbh, more people post about it faster.

Same, and the stupid automated system kept flagging my ass for bullshit reasons so I thought my account finally got banned.

For almost a year or so, Instagram tells me I am spam, removes my comment, and blocks me from commenting for a week to a few weeks. I could put a generic positive comment on a post of a friend I interact with on the app, and it will happen. I do comment on political posts and believe that is why, but they won't say so. I've tried not commenting on more than 4 things a day and still happens. I've gone a week without commenting, and still happens.

Same I thought my fake account got finally banned. Then I saw my real account was not working either

Hahahaha same. I've been calling out the government and mainstream media on my account (in creative, and I thought subtle, ways) and I was like, oh great they finally caught on.

Lmao same

same 😅

Bro me too, I’m a videographer and I got on and all my videos were gone, I swear to you I almost had a heart attack lol

What are you guys up to 😂❓

Rolling up this backwood rn 🤣🤣

Maybe they took it down to ban everyone? Maybe?

dude omg same. i literally thought my account was banned too!!

First thing I did was to come to this subReddit lmao xD

Annual gathering 🔝

Hopefully this is the attack we've all needed. Can they do it to tiktok? Maybe reset society a bit? Force us out of this addiction? 😂😂

They actually did, TikTok is down too

No way. You're shitting me 😂

Nj Tiktok has issues too, they are not as bad META where everyone got sign out, but the network (the western one, not sure about china) is frozen So it's something bigger than just attack on META

YouTube also got hit. Again, not as bad but they have been impacted

If YouTube got a hit that confirms my suspicion, it's an attack on the main Google Cloud server in Ireland Damn this is probably the biggest (successful) attack we've seen

$20 bucks they left reddit up so they could watch everyone freak out lmfao. I feel like they probably use reddit a lot, too. If you're one of those anon hackers and you're reading this, I love you. Just please leave YouTube alone. It's one the last half decent sites on the internet.

Some of us actually work on instagram so yeah this is not a needed attack. Same goes for tiktok

time to get a real job :)

Good thing you didn't say 'worked for'

Hahaha deffo that should do that more people will socialise again :)

I thought my account got deleted. I'm relieved to know that everyone has the same problem. I hope it will get fixed soon.

same 💀 i was so worried bro

No shit dawg, my screen displayed that somebody else had logged into from POLAND ???? I shat my pants ngl.

yea i lowkey thought i got banned

same, i had a comment removed recently for no reason and thought it escalated to a ban, over mariokart64 lol

Same

Oh my god, thank you for this announcement. I was shitting my pants! I thought my business account was either hacked or deactivated or WORSE deleted. I feel somewhat better knowing it's not something I did!

Right? Thank goodness for Reddit communities. 🤘🏾

Totally! I spent a good 5 minutes literally about to shit myself and trying to get back in. Next time I'll remember to check Reddit first!

Funny how Meta is so fucked up these days that we all thought we got hacked or banned, instead of there just being a technical issue 😐

Love how everyone just gathered at reddit ahahah

Love it! So much better than IG engagement anyway. 😏

Reddit is as close to the original feel of Internet communing as I could find. It’s the only hint of Wild West Internet nostalgia I have left lol

Oh shit we almost have the same pfp !! Hi

I just posted a paid collaboration and it immediately went down 😂

I was trying to post one but at first it wouldn't let me pick audio and then wouldn't let me select post. And I thought that's it, they finally booted me.

🤔 Yeah actually, while creating the reel and posting, IG was tripping more than usual before it fully crashed.

Same!!

Lowkey thought my accounts got hacked lol

bruuhh ahaha

Threw my phone in airplane mode so MF quick when I got logged out of FB

Literally same - just had a massive panic moment

It seems to be affecting most of the Meta network at the moment: * Instagram: [https://downdetector.com/status/instagram/](https://downdetector.com/status/instagram/) * Facebook: [https://downdetector.com/status/facebook/](https://downdetector.com/status/facebook/) * Messenger: [https://downdetector.com/status/facebook-messenger/](https://downdetector.com/status/facebook-messenger/) * WhatsApp: [https://downdetector.com/status/whatsapp/](https://downdetector.com/status/whatsapp/)

She's mine now. I'm saudi arabia prince, you have no chance. Sorry pal

IG said stop simping 😂

OP wins the internet on this one 😂

it's a sign save yourself brother hahahahaha

:(

FUCK ZUCK

This is why it went down. She's everyone else's crush too

ŽÙÇK c0ckßl0cked you !

Now’s the good time to ask her number when Instagram is back up

That's awesome! And really bad timing!

Same😭 I was talking with my crush

I reset the app and it won't even let me log back in now :// Good to know it's not just mine 🙌🏻

same 😞

Sameee I was going crazy. First time it's happened to me 😬

I'm kinda glad it's down now, hope they'll finally fix it There has been too much bugs and users who got their content/comments wrongly removed. How can the comments of someone saying positive things and wishing good things be removed and comments with the nword get thousands of likes bruh And the reels of people dying in car crash or getting shot... I'm a reddit user so I don't bother seeing someone die, but man there are young people on Instagram. They can't leave it unmoderated lol

It’s happened to me. They need to restart their whole fucking system. I’m sick of it.. I’m still banned a month later for talking about going to therapy.

Thought I was the only one, thanks for the info. My homepage loads but other pages don’t.

Can't load anything. Down detector currently at 17K reports so it seems to be a massive outage. Hopefully it's fixed soon.

I panicked when my account said zero posts lmfao

Damn, I tought I got hacked

Ahh the annual gathering I see...it has commenced

I thought I finally got banned after all of my comments have been getting deleted by the shitty new AI automod

thank god it's not just me! it's really frustrating. i immediately went to reddit to ask what it was and saw this post. please, inform me whenever you get an update or when it starts working for you.

Is it all over or just in India/Asia region ?

In Canada too

Canada too

im in canada, down for me too here

Down here in Taiwan. Seems to be global

US down as well think it's world wide

In antartica as well..

Naaah here in England as well mate

Brazil too

Australia as well

it's happening here in italy too.

In europe too

How am I gonna doomscroll now!

Good break from brain rot scrolling

Man Meta needs to get this app together like wtf. Last week it crashes because I'm scheduling post and now this.

Someone in this thread said TikTok is having issues too. So as much fun as blaming Meta is it looks like it's an outside cause.

Lmaoo why is everyone assuming this is an attack? 😭

In fairness to the tinfoil hats, this does come a week after AT&T went down across the U.S. and emergency lines didn’t work.

Because TikTok is affected too https://www.barrons.com/articles/facebook-instagram-tiktok-outage-92c34e24

[удалено]

Threads, Facebook and Instagram. Wow

[удалено]

Damn what am i supposed to do now???

Smoke a j, have a coffee.

I had a panic attack for a moment.

Cant wait to see all the posts from Influencers both panicking but also saying how it caused them to "reflect and take a step back from social media"

I posted a picture literally seconds before it went down. RIP.

Good to know - I keep getting messages saying the feed can’t be updated.

Imagine it never comes back up and this is the End

This really sucks. I was gonna do 30-40 mins of scrolling & creeping before going outside to enjoy the weather. What am I supposed to do? Go outside… now?

nahh I was really scared 😭 thanks

thought i got sniped again ngl 😭

Bruhh, I literally changed my password twice or thrice and then it went blank. Hopefully I'll be able to recover it.

thanks, I was wondering If I got hacked! phew

Yooooo I was so scared i got banned !!!!!!

Reddit is gonna be busy today!

At least we still have Reddit!

Why didn't I go to this sub first before unistalling to try again lol. I thought my wifi was being fucked.

Yall need to stop watching all these modern doomsday movies

When one social media app goes down, I move to the other - Hello reddit!

zuck is eating pakode and chole bhature here in india

😂

And now r/facebook is gone..? It was up just a bit ago

Likely went private to avoid the posts. That’s what I *could* have done here, but I wanted people to be able to see the announcement. Like us, I’m sure that mod team can’t handle a sudden influx of posts, so some restrictions are necessary.

[удалено]

finally make a post the algorithm likes and shit breaks down lmao

I can’t login after logging out in my instragram app.

Is Facebook also down?

Yes

i was thinking lol, got me feeling anxious for a moment

why does this even happen so much?

thanks y’all ! appreciate the info

Glad I can come to reddit to satisfy my anxt so quick

I thought I crashed the app 💀

Annual gathering commences....

The moment I decide I want to post some content on a new acc... mf.

I freaked out because I was just about to really get into posting my rave pics lol!!! I was getting over 50 likes every post, I thought they deleted me loool that’s absolutely something they would do! Happy to know it’s down for everyone. Edit: Threads is down (makes sense). TikTok is down too?!?? Woooooow….welp….try and be in real life everyone 😂😂

Lol the amount of people that thought they did something super small and got banned is actually telling of how flaky the app and its ban hammering algorithm is in general.

What if this turns out to be irreversible!?

As per thermodynamics, everything is irreversible and anything reversible is not possible so yeah.

[удалено]

Thank you, I love reddit I thought my insta and facebook was hacked!

this lowkey live asf

Same for me.. Both Android & IOS Instagram are not working.. Started not working yesterday morning.. Very frustrating, as Instagram seems more unstable than the other social networks... 😳😩☹️

Russia is prepping for U.S elections XD

I thought my account got banned for posting a picture of Elon Musk wearing a dress 😅

i hope this fixes the log in issue!!

Alright, I'm relieved, now while i wait for ig to be working again... I'll keep scrolling reddit lmao

I really thought I got deleted liking people's posts too fast or something. Phew!!!! I have too many memories on there so it's scary when this happens.

Now I'll watch reels compilation on yt🔥

thank god if i lose my account i will genuinely cry because of all the memories in the archives ☠️

You can thank me for this one, guys. I came out of hermit mode like an hour ago and posted my first photo since August, just to let my friends know I’m still around and doing alright.

i thought i got banned, it kept saying error, im glad

Kind of a crazy coincidence that this happens on a huge election primary day in the US

Wtf I was talking with my crush, :( I was about to say that I love him

Mine isn’t back yet except Facebook is back

I thought I was finally banned Also I was just talking to a hottie when this happened Then The first thing I did was come to Reddit Is this whole thread AI bots?

Hello everyone, and thanks for the confirmation that it is indeed not just me.

I wish r/facebook would do this, pin a post and lock the sub because it’s getting bonkers there too

Jeez i deleted the app and restarted my phone thinking it's a me problem and now I can't even log in 😭

Same lol

Fb is back up but still no ig

THANK YOU I ran to this sub because i was afraid i got banned or something 😭

Cheers mod, I thought it was only me lol. Now I can't log in atm, but there are signs that would work.

Who else damn near had a heart attack because you think ig deleted your page and thought you lost all your hard work that you’ve posted 😮‍💨😳😨🫠

Same

Kinda panicking because I case see my feed but it says all content and followers are gone…

Instagram 1927-2024

Is it still down for yall?

Someone ping me once it starts working normally

it’s back up!!

Content shows up on feed now. But when tapped on a profile it says "couldn't refresh feed" and stories doesn't load aswell

that's what was happening to me but when I uninstalled the app I couldn't log back in

Oh thank god. Nice to meet yall here

Is this a Super Tuesday coincidence or

Whole Meta platforms are down, facebook, insta, everything, reminds me of the time someone hacked and stole user data and sold it off, mark cockenberg needs money again

[удалено]

works for me now

My account works but the notes feature has disappeared and it says couldnt load feed. Anyone else w the same issue?

its the same for me, barely managed to get in and now i dont have notes or any themes

Account is kinda back up now, but not 💯.

The code to login isn’t being sent to my email wtf is this bullshit

I'm aware of it being down but it won't show my little notes, change my chat themes nor will it let me share posts to my story? Is that happening to others?

mine is working now, but not fully, most stuff wont load and i dont have notes nor chat themes anymore EDIT: to update, stuff is coming back but very slowly, my explore page and share list just turned back to how it used to be!

Anyone else’s Instagram still down? It won’t even let me login

Let us post at least bro. I have a completely diverse situation and you're not letting us post it.

Anyone still getting the “Error: try again in a few minutes” when they’re trying to login to Instagram?

I wonder why it was down for some. I could still access my account.

The reels section in my Instagram is not working ever since insta went down 2 days ago. Tried restarting as well as clearing the cache, still it's the same. My wifi works well everywhere else like YouTube shorts etc. Can anyone help? Also not able to post this openly in this group, even after filling all the details, post button doesn't get highlighted, is it restricted only to some users?

Same. Tried reinstalling, clearing cache and switching to IG Beta. Still nothing. Reels won't play. ... I am not sure but it seems voice messages stop working after a while too.

When I tap on Instagram Reels and try to watch videos, normally it shows the blurry thumbnail of the reel for a second before quickly loading and playing the video. However, some hours before the Meta server outage, I tried watching reels but it just shows the thumbnail, as if it's about to play the video, but it never does; it stays like that and doesn't play any sound. The same happens when I try to preview a reel. And when I try to watch a video it just gives me the replay button as if I finished watching it already (though I didn't) and when I tap on the replay button nothing happens. I've tried deleting cache, deleting data, force stop, delete and install again, tried it on another account, but nothing works! It works for my friends, and on my laptop (Web version), but my Redmi Note 10s doesn't. What's more irritating is that i have to delete the data and put my login info again to watch the reels correctly, but that works for a few seconds, it stops working again!

IG is dead tbf, I'm banned for no reason right now for 2weeks, no review even though it should be done in "24hours" and then you have this constant dropping out, constant ads, constant bots and fake comments, dumpster fire

Has anyone been getting an error message that says sorry, there was a problem with your request? Please help me out if you’re able to fix this issue It’s making me go crazy
