All browsers for me.
Maybe they are pouting because of their bad publicity.

Some people reporting Instagram is down too (I don't use that, just people on Facebook Down Detector reporting it)

Instagram is owned by Facebook, so that's probably why they are both down.

I'm sure it's a total coincidence that it's down right after an employee whistleblower exposed them for reducing security measures to stop misinformation & propaganda on the site because it was cutting into their profits.
Their DNS got nuked, if it was an outside hack they could have fixed that by now.

It's back up but Marketplace is glitchy. I made a bundle sale of 6 items on Posh and had a heck of a time deleting them from MP.
The recently reported HiBid hack affected my daughter. It is a site used by those who deal with auction and estate sales.
Her bank called her last week asking if she bought something on Google for $70 but she hadn't. Kudos for the bank to catch that since my daughter sure uses her CC a lot. They closed down her account.
So a week later the hack was announced. A bit late, methinks.

Honestly, I'm not a FB fan but it's the only way for me to get info out to my entire family all at once. I hide anyone that makes political posts, repost crap over and over again or are just generally annoying. I'm not sure there is another option that would be any better, to be honest.

I have an online Lab friend who thinks Facebook is for posting selfies all day long. I snooze her and look at her posts now and then.

I'll snooze the ones who post selfies and photos of their food.

The only thing that I do on FB is like friends posts and look at cute animal video. A little shopping too since everything that I seem to google ends up in my FB feed. At some point I usually cave and make the purchase.

I like to share super funny stuff. Never selfies or my food.

The only time I do FB is to look at my niece's page once a week or so to see what it up with them. I never post.
My neighbor from across the street posted a Happy Birthday to me on my FB page last January and I didn't see it until the end of May. I figured it was way to late to thank him.
My FB page is a big blank. |

Same. In the past I've had people tag me with pictures. Then I struggled to try to find a way to remove them. Now I try harder to avoid being in pictures. Recently looked up my brothers exGF that was pregnant. It didn't end well for any of them. She recently posted pictures of her daughter's 1st birthday. Baby M has another new "daddy". Eyeroll. Hoping only good things for them though.

Yeah, I don't mind the premise of FB (though who cares what anyone had for dinner last night lol), it's the execution I have issues with. The data mining, the security issues, the basically spying on its users. If it didn't have those issues, I'd be fine with it. It certainly CAN be done without those things, but then they'd have a harder time making $$. |

I hate the pictures along the right side.
The ladies who are on my chemo keep posting nasty pics of their disgusting toenails. And those pics are always visible until a lot more pics are posted. Wish I could get rid of them!
I'd prefer to see selfies and food, TBH.

I am on a PF page. (Plantar fasciitis) Some posters feel they have to post photos of their feet, ankles and toes. Seriously, just post where it hurts.

My chemo is pure heck on the feet, but mine are so much better since I am avoiding foods high in folic acid. But when we first start on the stuff, the palms of our hands and bottoms of our feet turn bright red to burgundy.
I like to freak people out when I show them my burgundy hands. They don't always hurt though.
People totally panic when that happens. Or their fingernail looks funny. They have no idea how bad they can get.

My FB page is a big blank. Mine is too. My sister and sister-in-law are addicted to it. I stay away on purpose, don't want to engage in daily BS or see what they are eating for dinner or what they are watching on TV. My sister reads all the gossip from the extended family and then sends a text message to my DIL with anything important that I may need to know, as I don't do the texting thing either. Such a convoluted route to get info to me. |

I had to tell friends in PHX that if they wanted to contact me and have me reply in a timely manner, they needed to call, text or email me. Not contact me thru FB, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.
I'll message my neice or my oldest friend on FB, but only if I happen to be online and they're also online. Otherwise I just text or call.
