LinkedIn goes down following Microsoft acquisition

LinkedIn is down




Professional social network LinkedIn may be down for some users, coming just days after its $26.2 billion acquisition by Microsoft. Some have reported receiving a 502 error, which the company defines as “a server hangup,” while others, like myself, have received a nicer error message saying that the company's getting “things cleaned up” and that “we'll be back soon.”



LinkedIn's mobile apps also appear to be affected by this outage. On an iPhone, I received an error message when perusing my News Feed and not displaying any posts and other sections such as messaging and notifications were slow to load.


It appears that this outage may only be affecting some of the company's 433 million members. In a tweet from its customer service account, LinkedIn said that its team is aware of the issue and is “actively working on this!”
