Facebook, Instagram, and Threads users were panicked on Tuesday as the Meta-owned apps experienced an outage of almost two hours!

Though the company has yet to explain what caused the outage fully, only offering a brief apology, saying it was a “technical issue”,  social media users had fun talking about the outage.

Here are some of the funniest reactions:
