Owners of two large bots faced problems
Various factors led to one problem: webhooks on the bot servers could not process the accumulated requests from Telegram.
According to preliminary information, the @FleepBot BotAPI server instance crashed, and for some time it gave 502 to bot requests (the problem is still there). The @ChatKeeperBot webhook could not connect for other reasons.
The ChatKeeperBot support representative added in a dialogue with the editors that this was the case before: “we received only part of all bot messages updates, also there were problems with sending requests”.

Previews for Instagram posts
Over the past few months Instagram post previews have been unstable or not working at all.
This is caused because of some weirdness of Instagram, which is owned by Facebook: under undefined circumstances, Instagram does not return the required data (OpenGraph tags). This data is used by third-party services to generate previews.
At the same time, in WhatsApp (also owned by Facebook), this function continued to work, apparently due to the special access mode provided by Facebook.
Got to mention, in 2016 Instagram tried to block Telegram and Snapchat links, but after user complains the developers rolled the change back.
