What you do when social media crashes

United States
October 4, 2021 7:02pm CST
I did not even know what happened until late in the day. Apparently some of the main social media platforms crashed earlier and someone asked me about it. I really didn't notice anything until I noticed that I was not getting any new notifications on my feed. It came back and then the feed was updated. If this ever happens again, there are always other websites to go on besides social media. I know a lot of you are used to having it but sometimes you have to be ready for something like this when it happens.

I only read about it on twitter when i woke up this morning but facebook crashing? I couldn’t care less. Even if it would be down forever, i wouldn’t be affected at all. Facebook, instagram, and messenger. All owned by facebook.

@Metsrock69 twitter is what I'm mostly at and instagram. Though I hated the fact that Facebook bought instagram. Most of my artist friends gave up on Instagram when the news came out that facebboo was buying it. All the things they told me came true. And they were right to leave before Facebook took over. Not a fan of messenger.

I didn’t know it was done till very late afternoon which isn’t a big deal for me. I was trying to update my Instagram account on my earnings for today but I can also do that whenever.

It's nice to have time away from social media. I didn't know about the sites being down until much later in the day.

I didn't notice because I am not always online. I only heard about it on TV when I woke up this morning.
