Facebook down for some users
Multiple users from several parts of India reported problems with Meta-owned Facebook on Thursday, especially facing trouble with its ‘Ads Manager’. DownDetector, an online website outage monitoring platform, showed that most of the outage reports were from Mumbai and Delhi.
Facebook has yet to comment on what caused this outage.
Facebook services appeared to be down for some users as they face issues while logging into the platform’s Creator Studio and Ads Manager services. On the website status tracker Downdetector, outage reports connected to Facebook are seeing a sudden spike.
Several users took to the microblogging platform Twitter to report the issue.
“In the middle of building out a massive campaign & Ads Manager goes down,” a user said in a tweet.
“Entered Facebook Ads Manager, but can’t access it because of an error, also me: runs to Twitter to check if I’m alone,” another user commented.
In October this year, Facebook was unavailable to roughly 3.5 billion users in the world for six hours.
The outage also moved traffic to other social media applications and websites like Signal and Twitter which saw a surge in users by 140 times and seven times respectively.
Video streaming platforms such as YouTube and Jio Play also saw a surge in traffic — up by 30 times and 20 times respectively.
