Instagram Server Down, Intermittent Outage Happening Country Wide—Issue Persists for All

Instagram is seeing a server down on its operations today. Still, there seems to be no fix at the moment as there are different people that experience another issue per region or device. The reports call this an "intermittent outage," and it is a different issue per device that may or may not have the application malfunctioning.

This kind of outage is somehow more troublesome as it is a different case in another place and time.

Several hours earlier, users began to report the Instagram application (via Down Detector) to see a server down issue or a malfunctioning timeline that they could see but could not fully access its content. Now, the reports have died down, but some still say the app is not functioning correctly on their end.

A report by NetBlocks via Twitter shares a screenshot of Instagram's error notice and calls this case an "intermittent outage" as there are no specific issues on a user's device.

For some, it would appear as a "Welcome to Instagram" display that most new users see, and some reportedly say that images and stories do not load, but their timeline appears.

Instagram Down: Different Cases for Each Person

Note that some Instagram users report that their service is back on, but some still suffer from the outage that is currently happening. Not everyone's application is back to normal, and some are still looking into a fix coming from the service providers.

The dubbed issue is known as "intermittent outage" and is almost a new term in looking into cases like this, and Instagram is suffering from it now.

One of the massive multimedia entertainment social platforms is Instagram. It still sees a massive service outage on its end during this time that the company cannot directly address. The social media is famous for its Reels feature that comes in the vertical video format, bringing the public a chance to create their content via Instagram.

However, Instagram wants it to be original content from the public and not just something reposted on the platform.

The platform now brings back its past algorithm that would get a feed in chronological order, and it focuses on the time and date it observes to have posts appear on one's timeline. Before this, users get to see Instagram in an algorithm that Meta made, and it brings the top interactions with mutual accounts to be their top results.

There are many features on Instagram now, but they would not be accessible if the application keeps seeing an outage or problem in the current landscape. Nobody knows what is happening on Instagram now, as there are no confirmations or updates from Meta or the company regarding its operations, something that it should address immediately.
