I work in a different social media company that has had some visible outages. Its always hilarious to see how wrong people are with their confident speculation. It's a good reminder that people online are often full of shit.

- oversighzed 5y agoLol I had the exact same lesson too. Saw people spewing falsehoods as facts and being misled by others. I’ve started to take everything I see online with a pinch of salt.
