If you are having trouble accessing Facebook and Instagram, it’s not just you. Both of the giant social media websites have gone down worldwide, forcing it’s users on Twitter to tweet regarding the errors they are facing.
Facebook down
When accessing Facebook on a computer, users are being displayed with the following message:
Sorry, something went wrong.
