    The recent update for my Vivo X Fold has fixed all notification issue I was having. System wide dark mode no long breaks notifications for apps and Facebook Messenger notifications pop up like they should. Still waiting for top/bottom split screen but that's on the apps it seems.

    Anybody else's Facebook messenger not working?

  • SocialMediaRocs LeeAleta (@SocialMediaRocs) reported

    The Lowe's FB messenger is a joke. I hv repeatedly asked 2 speak 2 a mgmt! 2 week defective washer all I want is an exchange not a repair.. Can’t get a professional real person on FB, twitter. This is unacceptable & demand 2 speak to a Lowes social media manager not a bot!! Help!

    Is Facebook Messenger not working for anyone else? (Yes, I know - FB, eww. But this is the primary method my family uses to communicate).

    @RAZ0RFIST Just an aside Facebook messenger was down during the time of and around the raid

  • ahazlett Alex Hazlett (@ahazlett) reported

    @lmatsakis I think "help from Facebook" is unfair here. They were *served a search warrant* for the messages AFTER the police had gotten the medical records and interview the girl who showed police her FB messenger messages.

  • Korpsis Emma 🏳️‍⚧️ (@Korpsis) reported

    @SnazzyQ Even as an American, 99% of the people in my life use Facebook messenger, and the vast majority of those people have the same problem.

    @BigEasyLondon I’ve replied to you on Facebook messenger and I’ve written to you here regarding the absolutely appalling service in your Westfield Stratford branch. I’ve been there three times and every visit got worse. A spoon thrown across the table by your server and

    @SteveRyfle @SteveRyfle it is me again I can’t login into Facebook messenger so I am going have to contact here I have a question for the ishiro Honda book you worked on how were you able to get critics reviews for mothra vs GodZilla, destroy all monsters, among others?

  • kincadium Kincade (@kincadium) reported

    @LordLex44 @SnazzyQ @MKBHD Basically yeah. It works in a similar method to something like Whatsapp, Facebook messenger, or even kik and falls back to sms if iMessage isn't available. Problem is that sms is unsecure, and for a company that's so big on security that's a bad look.

    @DanceSoldier_MM @MacRumors @julipuli The problem I have is that my contacts want to use WhatsApp or Facebook messenger but I refuse to use Facebook/Meta services. I use iMessage, Signal and Threema. Works fine with every iPhone user, but barely anyone I know use signal or threema

  • LordZiggington Ziggy (@LordZiggington) reported

    @jonfasman Facebook messenger already has a secret conversation mode with self destructing messages built in. Failing that I guess you could just sit in a room writing it down on paper your conversation then burn it, without ever saying a word

  • crookita Crookita (@crookita) reported

    @0liviajulianna Unfortunately most of rural and small town America relies on FB messenger to communicate because people don't always have cell service, so deleting FB means not being able to communicate with anyone. If all of y'all delete Instagram too I'll be impressed.

  • primal33 Accretia (@primal33) reported

    @facebook Facebook messenger is down at the moment. Cant view chats or send messages. Whats happening? You're not evening posting an advisory

    Facebook messenger down again??

  • strangeglow John Worthington (@strangeglow) reported

    @kazweida First, if you use FB Messenger, you should enable end to end encryption. It appears, according to the article, that they turned over the data in response to a search warrant. Unless encrypted, it's naive to assume ANY service, including this one will deny a warrant.

    @IsDanielhie Facebook messenger on data free . Both are owned by Meta anyway . Problem is everyone doesnt have a fb account like they have a cel number .

  • elyobo El Yobo (@elyobo) reported

    Loving the soothing Kiwi accent while on hold to @FlyAirNZ, just wish it wasn't so long, or that their FB messenger support service had responded in the 18 hours since I pinged them there.

  • MarieGerard18 Marie Gerard (@MarieGerard18) reported

    @david_garrett David Someone using your name from a Facebook messenger ask me for my friendship and now money. I been harassed every day. I can’t deal with this anymore pls someone help me. He sent your pics too I do not believe is you. You are a professional

  • GhostProMax Ghost (@GhostProMax) reported

    @dazeone81 @superquanganh @Moto760 It's not in your or mine favor. It's in Google's. And Apple simply ONLY controls iMessage, which everybody knows is Apple's private IM service. WhatsApp, FB messenger, telegram, all are like that. Problem is Google wants you to believe its OWN messaging service is a standard.
