- Change user-agent to a desktop browser - any will do
- (optional) run social fixer while you're at it
I completely understand that iOS probably won't let you do this. I've been doing this on Android and Firefox, and the web experience on a phone is... functional. Since it thinks its a desktop, the page layout doesn't always gracefully fit into a portrait form-factor. Landscape mode helps in those cases.
they deny you access until you give them access...
fsck them! i blocked my fb account and not looking back. once it was a place to find and discuss with interesting people... but now it's just a cesspool of filtered irrelevance and propaganda.
Does that work on mobile? It always prompts me to install Messenger.
My workaround here is/was:
- Install browser that lets you run plugins
- Change user-agent to a desktop browser - any will do
- (optional) run social fixer while you're at it

Yeah, my workaround is just going to the desktop version of Facebook when I absolutely must use it on my phone (usually marketplace-related.)
