UPDATE: 2:20 PM on December 11th

It appears that Meta, Facebook's parent company, is aware of the issue and they are working to correct the problem.

Meta has released a statement on X/Twitter regarding the outage, which started at about 1 p.m.

The statement reads:

We’re aware that a technical issue is impacting some users’ ability to access our apps. We’re working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible and apologize for any inconvenience.

If you have been having issues using Facebook, Facebook Messenger, or other Meta products, you are not alone.

There was a spike of outage reports on Down Detector just after 1 p.m. Eastern time on Wednesday, December 11th.  Within a few minutes, over 100,000 Facebook users had filed a report with the site saying that they were having some kind of issue with the social media company's platforms.

Some Facebook users have found it impossible to post or see posts.  For example, when I look at my own page, or the pages of any Facebook friends, the platform tells me that there are no posts available.

Here's what it looks like:

So far, Facebook/Meta has yet to make a statement about the outage.  The most recent post on the Facebook Facebook page was a Reel showing dogs that was posted earlier today, the most recent post on the Meta Facebook page was a comment about how the company plans to continue to post Reels, and the most recent post on X/Twitter was a March 5th post apologizing for an outage and explaining that the platform was back.
