Zuckerberg admitted that the issue was serious.
American technology blog The Verge published a leaked transcript of the 2019 slowdown. It was told that the company's chief executive Mark Zuckerberg had considered such a slowdown as a serious issue. He believed that any such problem can divert people to use the platform of our competitors. It can take months to win people's trust when this happens. 

6 months ago, platforms were stalled for 42 minutes, This is not the first time that the service of these three has been affected. This happened on March 19 as well. About 6 months ago, WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook were stalling for 42 minutes all over the world. Then this problem started at 11.05 pm and continued till around 11:47 pm. WhatsApp has been downloaded more than 5 billion times in the world.

WhatsApp has crashed several times in the past due to increased load on the server. Soon this problem is resolved. That much time is enough to trouble billions of users. However, there are few reports of WhatsApp crashing all over the world.
