[–] idkwhatnametopick@kbin.social 7 points 3 years ago (2 children) Companies that do this absolutely annoy me. Even Facebook doesn’t do this?? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] HelixDab@kbin.social 2 points 3 years ago Yeah, so, uh, m.facebook.com has made a sudden and radical change in the last few days. I'm not sure what's going on, but it's currently not usable for me. I don't know if that's happening to multiple people. permalink fedilink source parent [–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago (1 child) Are there third party Facebook apps? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ZenGrammy@lemmy.world -1 points 3 years ago I use Friendly social Browser on Android. It's basically a wrapper for the mobile website and allows me to sort posts the way I want them, which is important to me. I don't want the algorithm. I've used it for years. It works with quite a few different social media sites and doesn't allow all the tracking. I have the Plus version and I'm allowed to turn off ads on both the app and Facebook and block "stories" and other silliness I don't care for. I don't know if the free version does all of that. permalink fedilink source parent
