Login error
I’m tired of getting this notification whenever i want to login into my account
Basically am unable to login into my account
It keeps on bringing login error due to some unexpected errors that occurred try again after sometimes for more than a month now
I tried deleting the app and downloading it again but I’m still facing the same thing
Showing disdain for users.....
Dear Messenger management team & developers....the rate at which you require users - the life-blood of your app - to update the app shows utter disdain for many within the spectrum of users across the globe. SURELY by now you would be able to realize that a relatively low proportion of your users worldwide have access to uncapped or other forms of endless data of varying speeds!!
A quick browse of comments/feedback you receive reveals consistent frustration at the endless stream of low impact updates that plague this generally useful app.
Are you reading? Are you listening? Are you applying objectivity to who is complaining & not “weighting” intention to receive & act on input depending on from which continent or sub-continent the feedback comes?
I wonder if it has crossed your creative minds to package the mostly small incremental improvements into less frequent more impactful update releases? Has it?
To some extent you appear compulsive & a bit uncontrolled in your creativeness.....maybe over eager to be recognized as constantly evolutionary....
Why positively attract millions of users to a great app while simultaneously pushing back negatively via the experience you willfully create? 🤔

To be honest
My phone was stolen and due Facebook and big company’s not paying tax and all that stuff you know life has been pretty hard for a lot of us working on the bottom. Anyway. I’m back on my old phone not much space on it either. My MacBook charger is completely worn out. I need to connect on Facebook message cause I need to get a second hand one from market place, but I have to download the app? I have not much space on my phone for extra apps already, what stupidity is this. For me to read my Facebook message I need a whole separate app for the Facebook which I just use in with my browser. The stupidity with these people is truly high. I cannot open my Facebook messages on my phones browser in 2022... which it’s almost 2023 and instead the mark guy is adding “legs” to his metavers. The joys of being at the bottom.
