Get ready for the internet to explode.

Jennifer Aniston just joined Instagram.

And her first post? Oh, just a little photo with some friends. Or, rather, “Friends.”

And now we’re Instagram FRIENDS too. HI INSTAGRAM ??

A post shared by Jennifer Aniston (@jenniferaniston) on

And with that, she likely just broke the internet.

They’re all there: Aniston, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer.

Along with Aniston’s message: “And now we’re Instagram FRIENDS too. HI INSTAGRAM”

A “Friends” reunion has just been talked about nearly every day since the NBC series dropped off the air in 2004.

And while there have been plenty of semi gatherings here and there — from guest spots on the “Joey” spinoff to the girls playing a scene on Jimmy Kimmel to other teases — there’s never been a time when we’ve been able to see the whole gang back together again.

Until now.

The closest we’ve come is when five of the six actors gathered in 2016 to honor director James Burrows. But Perry wasn’t there. So the “reunion” aspect wasn’t complete.

The image, US Weekly reports, is likely from a gathering Oct. 5 at Cox’s house.

“The whole gang. Everyone was there,” Aniston told Howard Stern on his Oct. 7 show. “Schwimmer was in town, and we all happened to have a window of time, so we all got together.”

Needless to say, her post was commented on endlessly.

Cox messaged back, “love you ♥️♥️”

Justin Theroux (yep, Aniston’s ex husband) cheered “Woot-Woot! ❤️ #first”

Reese Witherspoon said, “YASSSS!!! Welcome to Insta Jen!!! ❤️✨”

Of course, the timing of Aniston joining Instagram comes as her new Apple series (with Witherspoon) “The Morning Show” is set to debut on Nov. 1.

Even though she just joined and only posted the one time, Aniston’s account has more than 250,000 followers.

Her bio reads, “My friends call me Jen.”

Classic.
