Top social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp simultaneously went down for over 6 hours, leaving users confused as to what had gone wrong. Yesterday afternoon, users started complaining that new messages were not being loaded and user feeds were getting disrupted across all the three social media apps, all of which are owned by Facebook.

The only major social media that was up and running was Twitter. As expected, people had a fun time trading memes on Twitter. Mercedes F1 Team’s social media team joined in on the fun as well.

Mercedes was one of us when the social media apps went down

Mercedes tweeted this meme, created on a template of Valtteri Bottas’ reaction to the Lewis Hamilton – Max Verstappen crash at Monza that they themselves had posted a few days back.

These tweets were put out as the team slowly realized that it was not just WhatsApp, but also Instagram and Facebook were experiencing a blackout.

Other F1 teams joined in too, with Alpine replying to Mercedes’ tweet.

The other Social Media Platforms were all up, including TikTok, LinkedIn, and, yes, Twitter.

Another hilarious moment was when Mercedes suddenly started tweeting random stuff after saying that they were just trying to find the Mercedes MySpace password.

Mercedes even seemed to have made plans in case Twitter went down as well! They sent a loving tweet to all the fans promising they would meet again at the Turkish GP next week.

However, all the services resumed after a long 6 hours, to the relief of EVERYONE. Even though in some cases partially. But something is still better than nothing.
