Facebook, Instagram down for several users across the world

 Meta social media platforms Facebook and Instagram were down for several users across the globe, with many users complaining about log in issues that they have been facing on Tuesday evening.

According to several users, some could not refresh Instagram pages while some users were asked to change their passwords.

YouTube too faced similar outage issues.

According to Downdetector.com, which tracks outages, there have been as many as 3,00,000 reports of Facebook outages and nearly 20,000 reports of Instagram outages across the world.

Meta is yet to comment on the outage.

Several users took to X to comment on the outage.

“Anyone else's #Facebook logged out? Can't log back in, keeps saying session expired or unexpected error?,” a user asked.

"The social media platforms Instagram and Facebook, both owned by Meta, are currently experiencing an outage. If you are having trouble logging in, there is no need to panick, you didn't get hacked (I panicked too)," wrote another user.

Some of the responses were rather hilarious.
