I never even turned it on. Since they split messenger off I can no longer read read messages on my cellphone...without installing a separate app. Functionality that worked perfectly fine previously until they decided to disable to force messenger onto people.
Can't you just open facebook.com in your phone's browser? I've been doing that for a couple of years since noticing that it's both faster and more reliable than the Facebook iOS app.
Yeah its tedious though. So mostly I just decide it can wait till I get home and have access to a computer.
If you're on Android, you should check out Tinfoil for Facebook. It's a wrapper for facebook's mobile page. I find it more useful than the regular facebook app. You can also get notifications back using IFTTT.

What about people that only want to use chat, without having the Facebook app. Especially since you don't need a Facebook account to use messenger.
I agree. It is terrible and I have stopped responding to messages on facebook when I'm on mobile.
