WhatsApp Is Down

Interesting to see a standard white error page with black Times New Roman text saying "5xx Server Error" at instagram.com.

Usually when Facebook goes down there's some kind of branded error page.

Does this say anything about what piece of infra is failing, especially if they share data centre space with FB but the big blue app is still live?

Raw HTML error implies that both frontend and backend crashed. Some data center could have gone down
