Try to remain calm.

Popular social media app Instagram has crashed, and people are reacting calmly and appropriately to the news. Only joking, of course they're not. Photos will not load on the site, and people are flipping out as a result. According to downdetector, The UK and Ireland are the worst effected by the crash. Damn it, if only we were in Kazakhstan. Don't worry guys, we'll be able to see Boomerangs of what everyone had for lunch soon, it won't be down for too long... https://twitter.com/EminikOfficial/status/994559259009605632 https://twitter.com/Emma_LouiseMSD/status/994561220991741957 https://twitter.com/ItsGillen/status/994561263089963008 https://twitter.com/JakeQuickenden/status/994563730724786176 https://twitter.com/emmajwoodhams/status/994562206376366081 https://twitter.com/JepsJP/status/994560998328754176 https://twitter.com/LeanneWoodfull/status/994566006772326400 https://twitter.com/DoireannGarrihy/status/994557850771972097 It seems like the majority of people suffering from withdrawal symptoms are using Twitter to soften the blow. What do we do if Twitter goes down? I don't even want to know. We might have to talk to people in person? No thank you. Instagram have made no comment about the crashing of the site at the time of writing.
