Twitter user @dolanistyping posted: “Like it’s actually down, my explore page feed is f**ked, it won’t let me access my DMS on any of my accounts, other apps are working but Instagram is just down skdjd.”
Some users are concerned that Instagram is hacked
@Seven16 wrote: “I’m amazed Instagram has been down for so long. I have a feeling it’s a DDoS attack of some kind, or it could be a serious hack, which means all our DMs and sh*t could be made public for the world to see. We should be terrified.”
@Jeongkookie6 is concerned that their account may be deleted during this downtime! They said, “Okay so I tried looking up my account online and it said there was an error??? So @instagram did you delete me account?? And I tried my other one still doesn’t work and can’t find that one ether??”
