'The crisis peaked, the waters receded, and we, somewhat unsurprisingly, just started scrolling again.'
On Monday some of Facebook’s servers crashed and endless global scroll was momentarily halted. For six hours of offline purgatory, 3.5 billion users were unable to see one another's lunches , or group dunk mutual foes . Our booming elders were also denied access to their weapon of mass disinformation .
There was an exodus to Twitter, a.k.a. nirvana for people who believe they’re too cerebral for the bikini shots on the other apps. Twitter had a trenches atmosphere: We were all doing jokes, but there was a rising dread, a burgeoning awareness that despite our rather full lives, the crashed server had left us at somewhat of a loose end.
For me, WhatApp was the most notable, as it’s literally a portal to functioning adult life. Nothing was life-threatening, but I was aware that texting my mum wasn’t an option , but the missing app was less of a loss of flex, more of a lifeline to someone I love.came back
