FB issue question…..
All of a sudden when I open FB ( not the app) but in the browser, Group conversations appear which I have never participated in before and don’t even know the people mentioned. And if I hit it lucky, it might show 2-4 of my contacts under contact list. I usually have of course all my currently online contacts show first, then my offline contacts but always it showed all my contacts ( About 60). I have tried googling this problem but am coming up without a fix. I hope this made sense, nothing seems to anymore after you become a senior ![:haha: [icon_lol2.gif]](./images/smilies/icon_lol2.gif)

It's a problem on Facebook's end, not yours. It's been doing the same thing for me. They like screwing around and breaking things.

Thanks. Yeah I know a few people having other issues with FB. Usually I can Google the problem and get a fix, but not this time.OldBlindDog wrote: ↑Apr 1st, 2024, 1:34 am It's a problem on Facebook's end, not yours. It's been doing the same thing for me.

Indeed they are quite competent in that regard.

Re: FB issue question…..
no, you have to click on the side to see friends. I lost the friends list on the right side, after an hour I gave up. Now it shows convos from last year. sigh

Re: FB issue question…..
Well it seems to be hit and miss now. One time it’s all working as it should, next time it will show a couple of contacts, then again it will just show group conversations with no contacts.
Not sure what you mean by clicking on the side? When I bring Fb up, I never had to click anywhere, the contacts were just automatically displayed on the right. I guess I could try the app but I just always seemed to like it via the browser for some reason.

It's supposed to work in a browser too, and did just as you say up until recently. I see the contacts come and go. One time I saw just three, then another time the whole column was filled again as normal.binky11 wrote: ↑Apr 2nd, 2024, 10:37 pm Well it seems to be hit and miss now.

ETA: I just logged in now and my list was back to normal. Will it stay that way? Who knows.
I've also noticed that bitdefender has blocked a malicious site, whose certificate doesn't match the site it was issued to, multiple times. Don't know if there might be a connection or not.

The problems I am seeing are on both mobile and PC.
For the last month at least I have been seeing various issues with FB.
It will hide multiple posts as soon as you scroll down.
It will not show a post made by me in my timeline like it used to.
And will not show posts made by me in a group.
Sure hope someone finds a better solution to FB soon as it has really become a laughing stock of social media.
