WhatsApp being down was a mild annoyance for sure.

Lol. Didn’t notice it and could care less. They have made pavlov’s dogs out of 99 percent of the population. All are better off with them down.

Of course, I decide to clear the data for Instagram (because it was acting wonky, has been for months now) yesterday, of all days to do this... Now I can't get back in, I can't remember my password, and I keep getting a message that the network is down when I ask for help. Now it all makes sense.

Can't you just text them?

And do group texts.
