Investigating
We have been alerted to the fact that Meta services are currently having some widespread downtime, which is resulting in troubles for Facebook, Instagram and Threads channels within Buffer. This will mean during this downtime posts that were scheduled from Buffer to these channels are unlikely to publish, and we will also be seeing trouble collecting analytics as well as connecting new channels from Meta.

We are following this incident from Meta and once we see an improvement or have more information, we will update accordingly here.
