What is Wrong with Facebook | 2019

Facebook went offline for many users on Thursday, with the world's most popular social media network telling users that "something went wrong".

When visiting Facebook.com, as opposed to seeing the regular homescreen or information feed, customers were greeted with an empty display as well as a short mistake message.

" Sorry, something failed. We're servicing it and we'll get it fixed as quickly as we can," the message reads.

The outage started at around 5.30 pm BST yet, for most users, showed up to have actually been fixed around 20 mins after.

Down Detector, which collects reports of prominent solutions being down, showed failures in the UK, Europe and the United States.

Obviously, individuals required to Twitter to have their say.

The site went down on Thursday afternoon and brief-ly showed up to function once again for some customers.

A spokesman for Facebook has said they are checking out what occurred.

Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook president, went to an event put on by Oculus, the virtual reality headset business Facebook possesses.
