About Facebook
Facebook is Meta's flagship social network, spanning News Feed, Messenger (now partly reunified), Marketplace, Groups, Events, Pages, Ads, and Meta Business Suite. Outages affect different surfaces: feed not loading or showing only ads, login loops (especially after suspicious-activity checks), Marketplace listings failing to post, Groups notifications not delivering, and Business Suite unable to load ad accounts. Page owners and ad buyers feel Business-side outages immediately because budgets keep spending while dashboards are unavailable. Meta shares infrastructure across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp, so large-scale outages tend to hit all four.
The official Facebook status page is at downdetector.com/status/facebook. However, official status pages are often updated manually and can lag behind real outages by minutes or hours. Independent monitoring catches issues faster.
