what a horrible day for purveyors of aspirational bougie content!
I might go an entire day without thinking about whether I need washable rugs or $100 linen sheets!

Looks like Twitter is having problems now too. I have been unable to see responses to any tweets and lots of similar complaints on down detector. Maybe all social media will go away today!

i'd miss facebook tbh. obv society will be better off without it – but it's been a great way to keep in touch with (most) my circle of friends during these covidy times.

if they weren't on facebook, my friends from around the world would presumably be on something less evil, so I welcome its death, even though I am a regular user.

xpost mine works but I noticed if I send a message it doesn't actually get delivered
i've had a test message in 'sending' for over an hour
it's very funny to me that facebook disabled my account about a week before this total collapse

was the disabling for breaking some rules (which is astonishing to me that someone could have accomplished this) – or was it a requested disablement?

Was just on phone with someone who works for FB who described employees unable to enter buildings this morning to begin to evaluate extent of outage because their badges weren’t working to access doors.— Sheera Frenkel (@sheeraf) October 4, 2021

i barely use facebook as it is, but yes, it was because i supposedly broke a rule (i extremely didn't and have been assuming my account was hacked)

It would be pretty hilarious if Facebook employees security badges operated through login with Facebook.

The next time the hackers do something like this they should give a secret heads up to all the restaurants that use Facebook to host their menus first.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 4 October 2021 20:40 (two years ago) link
seems like I remember a time long long ago when restaurants had printed menus but alas I was just a boy

sounds like the outages may have been self-inflicted when Facebook engineers screwed up a BGP config change

lol, lots of restaurant Facebook pages just feature a snapshot somebody took of the paper menu.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 4 October 2021 20:53 (two years ago) link
According to u/ramenporn — who claims to be a Facebook employee and part of the recovery efforts—this is most likely a case of Facebook network engineers pushing a config change that inadvertently locked them out
Because of course.
