Using www.messenger.com #262

Open spanezz opened 3 years ago

spanezz commented 3 years ago

www.messenger.com is a workable way to message people on facebook without being on facebook, and it seems to work well from mobile.

It can be embedded as a webapp on WebApps, provided that one changes the user agent to a desktop site, otherwise the login form won't show up and once logged in, the site will only show the login page (without login form).

Switching to a Desktop user agent makes the webapp work and resize correctly for mobile, but WebApp doesn't seem to remember the user agent preference, so every time I open the app, I need to go and change user agent.

Once WebApps can remember this setting, I guess www.messenger.com can be added to the list of recommended apps.

Correction, the user agent is preserved (no idea why it looked like it wasn't the first time I checked).

I guess then the only thing that one could do here is to add messenger to the list of suggested webapps, with the caveat of changing user agent
