About LinkedIn outages
LinkedIn is Microsoft’s professional networking platform. Outages are less frequent than on consumer social networks, but feed loading errors and messaging delays do occur during deployments and traffic peaks.
What to do when LinkedIn is down
- Check the LinkedIn mobile app if the desktop site is failing, or vice versa, since the two clients sometimes hit different backend endpoints.
- Try a private browsing window with extensions disabled, since ad blockers and privacy extensions are a frequent cause of blank feeds that look like an outage.
- Check whether LinkedIn Learning or the job search tool fail independently of the main feed, since LinkedIn runs them as separate product services.
- Sign out completely and clear cookies for linkedin.com before signing back in, which resolves stale-session errors that outlast a normal logout.
LinkedIn alternatives to use in the meantime
For professional messaging while LinkedIn is unreachable, email or a direct phone call to your contact works as a fallback since you likely already have those details. If you were job hunting, checking a company's own careers page or Indeed can substitute temporarily. Neither replaces LinkedIn's network graph, so treat these as short-term workarounds rather than replacements.
LinkedIn FAQ
Why does LinkedIn show a blank feed or "Something went wrong"?
A blank LinkedIn feed is usually transient: an API hiccup, a stale session, or a browser extension interfering with the page. If our check reaches linkedin.com successfully, sign out and back in or try a private browsing window before assuming a platform outage.
Are LinkedIn messages down if they won’t send?
LinkedIn messaging runs as its own service and can degrade while the rest of the site is fine. Messages that fail for everyone indicate a LinkedIn-side incident; if only your account is affected, it is more likely a session or connectivity issue.
Is LinkedIn down for everyone or just me?
We test LinkedIn (https://linkedin.com) live from our own servers. If our check succeeds but you still can't connect, the outage is probably local to you — try another network or device, clear your cache, or check LinkedIn's official status channels.
