Facebook on Saturday went down with thousands of users reporting they cannot access the popular social media site.
Some users were told the website was undergoing “required maintenance” on Saturday afternoon as they attempted to log in.
According to UK ‘s Independent Down Detector, a website that tracks internet outages, reported a large spike in users being unable to access Facebook at about 2 pm.
Most users reported a “total blackout”, meaning the site would not load, or that they were unable to log in to their accounts.
The technical problems appeared to be affecting Facebook’s desktop site and mobile application.
