i notice the script does not do anything, and when i use vpn , it does it's work. i don't know the reason, i'm from Egypt. and i try it on min-browser as a userscript

The script will work with/without VPN. The script works with the page's content in the browser - does not talk to servers.

Just to clarify: Are you saying the script will not work at all - with and without the VPN?

NB: The userscript will not work on mobile devices - only desktop computers.

Can you provide some more details, please:

Just for my clarity - if on a mobile device it is launched through a browser and a desktop screen is set - will the script work in this case or not?

Switching to desktop mode, the userscript will work/run and behave the same way as if it was running on a desktop computer.

The userscript works on the following domains:

On mobile devices, by default, FB usually switches and use the https://m.facebook.com domain in the browsers. The HTML structure/code used on that domain is very different from the above three listed domains - hence the script not running on m.facebook.com.
