    @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.

    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.

    @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.

    @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

    @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.

    @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.

    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.

    @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

    @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.

    I'm going to start doing these daily until they help me. 54 days since I was forced to pay @airtransat for a second bag that I'd ALREADY PAID FOR the night before. I've emailed, tweeted, used FB messenger. Over 30 business days for a reply is their answer. I want my money.

    @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
