Of late, netizens have witnessed outages on platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, and Discord. Telegram also joined the bandwagon last Saturday as many users faced problems in connecting to the server and sending or receiving messages. They took to Twitter to share screenshots of the app and raised alarm. The outage also triggered a plethora of memes on Twitter. Even though the company did not reveal the reason behind the interruption, they replied to many Twitter users to apologise.
