As Meta’s Facebook, Instagram and other social platforms appeared to experience a wide-scale outage on Tuesday morning, X owner Elon Musk took to his platform to remind users that its servers are still working.
Musk trolled Mark Zuckerberg’s social media giant in a short post on X after a Meta spokesperson had to resort to using X to update users about the issues with accessing Meta’s services.
“If you’re reading this post, it’s because our servers are working,” Musk wrote.
Andy Stone, Meta’s head of communications, earlier wrote in a post on X that the company is currently “working” to fix the issues.
