Facebook and Instagram were down for many users

The feeds stopped flowing across the world.

Facebook confirmed Wednesday that several of its users were having trouble accessing the social network and its sister network, Instagram.

“We're aware that some people are currently having trouble accessing Facebook and Instagram. We're working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible,” the company said in a statement.

On Twitter, many users from several countries said they were unable to even access Facebook.

Personally, I was not able to access Facebook's website, but could still interact with both Facebook and Instagram through apps.

Facebook and Instagram tend to be fairly stable, but they don't have a perfect record.
