About Facebook
Facebook is a social networking platform that allows users to connect with friends, family, and communities through status updates, photos, videos, and real-time messaging. Available on web and mobile, the Facebook app is used by individuals, businesses, and organizations to share content, promote events, run ads, and stay informed through curated News Feeds and trending topics. With features like Groups, Marketplace, Stories, and Messenger, Facebook serves as a central hub for social interaction and content discovery.
Users may encounter several types of issues when using Facebook, including:
Login problems or two-factor authentication not working
News Feed not updating or showing blank content
Photos and videos not loading properly
Messenger not sending or receiving messages
Notifications delayed or missing
These issues often prompt searches like “Why is Facebook not working today?” or “How to fix Facebook login issues.”
Outages can stem from a variety of causes such as scheduled maintenance, unexpected server overload, software bugs, or regional network disruptions. Since Facebook shares infrastructure with other Meta platforms, issues may also affect services like Instagram and Threads, making them useful alternatives when Facebook is unavailable.
