Lemmy server operators can now say they have better 24h uptime than Meta! lol
Just updated my résumé.
I am feeling a lot of personal satisfaction that I had no idea this was happening and had to read about it on Lemmy.

Hello to everyone that didn’t flock to X 👋 Welcome to your new home :)
Pouring one out for the SREs at Meta
Someone is having a really bad day today. I wonder if your phone dies when you get a certain number of pages or push notifications
Fun story. I had a flip phone years ago and you could have multiple recipients to a single text. And if the text was multiple pages, it would split into several texts. And you could resend already sent texts.
So one time I put in my girlfriend's phone number in all 20 recipient slots. I then filled the text to the max size, though I don't remember how many it split into. I then resent it over and over. This all took like 2 or 3 minutes.
Her phone was sending notifications over and over for the entire rest of the day. I'd guess at least 8 hours, probably more.
Fucking hell I used to love doing that! Man that brought back some memories. Would do it to my co-worker and just piss myself laughing.

Looking at the downmeter shot someone posted above, it's half the SREs in the country. Not sure what the root cause will be, but damn that's a lot of money down the tubes. I would not want to be the person who cost Meta and Google their precious thirty 9's of availability lol.

And nothing of value was lost
Lookup downdetector, almost all are flatlines.
Sap is also doing silly rn. Im gonna take a smoke break lol
Someone is having a very bad day
downdetector
Looks like it may have been AWS or something. All kinds of services were down a moment ago. Guess thats what happends when everything is on major cloud services.
Google have their own data centres (and cloud) so it may be something more in the connectivity area.

Pathetic. My single podman container has perfect uptime from when I start it manually with podman desktop to when I shut down my PC. I also allow only the highest security standard, it being not accessible outside of my network and all that. I am clearly a cyber security expert.
Ahaha it’s funny because I initially read that as serious comment X)
I'm glad that lemmy is there so that I know about this stuff.
You know it is big news when it shows up in the active feed of Lemmy 😅
Why it didn't appear in the wholesome news community though.
Who gives the tiniest of shits.
I mean, a lot of people use Messenger to contact other people, so I guess they do?
Contact other people? That’s foreign to me.

They seem to be back up. But, what do Meta, Google, Discord, Amazon, Zoom and Verizon have in common, but not AT&T, Steam, Uber Eats, SAP, etc?
Hey where you'd get that graphic from? Would be really nice to have a dashboard with all this info in one spot.
Edit: It's downdetector. I only ever landed there with a "Is foo.com down?", and of course it then only shows info for foo.com, not the full dash.

Whoopty fucking doo.
a great day for humanity ( unfortunately they will fix the problem soon as possible )
Good.
It’s all worth it if it means having this image grace the Fediverse.
It’ll be back up, it always will because family “has” to use it because it’s the only “easy to use” social media platform they’ve knew for a decade. TBF, it’s pretty shit in terms of the ui and I can’t navigate through the damn settings.
I don’t actively browse or use facebook
Can confirm, navigating Facebook settings is a nightmare. Do they do it on purpose, you think? They don't want people turning shit off, and stuff?

Interesting, Google play store was unavailable for me about an hour ago.
I don't really tend to care, though my quest account being down is a bit less fun.
