Instagram was down for a while, and everyone thought it was the worst April Fools' prank ever

Instagram was down this morning, and it wasn't very funny.
The service (https://hameed.nwar.uk/vb/instagram.com)*was **t only unresponsive on mobile: the Instagram website at one point consisted only of a "5xx Server Error" message. However, the problems seem to already be resolved, as both the mobile and the desktop version can be accessed.

Of course, Instagram users immediately flocked to Twitter to either complain or make fun of the service.*
We've reached out to Instagram about the reasons behind the outage and will update the article when we k**w more.* Read more... (http://mashable.com/2016/04/01/instagram-down-april-fools/)
