Who benefited from the Facebook outage?
Monday’s Facebook outage crippled all of the company’s platforms—WhatsApp and Instagram included—and sent the company into its biggest ever technological crisis. 
Yet while Facebook’s downtime was horrible for the company, it was something of a gift to its competitors, many of which saw engagement on their platforms soar. Some even saw new user signups go through the roof.
Telegram, the messaging app competitor to WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, gained over 70 million new users on Monday, according to founder Pavel Durov. Snapchat was another big winner, according to Sensor Tower. Its usage grew 23% week-over-week.
Interestingly, while Facebook arch-rival TikTok saw a small bump while Facebook was down, it was only a modest growth of 2% week-over-week.
