The best thing Facebook ever did was separate the useful messenger from the terrible main site.

Wow. How did I miss this?

I still keep Facebook around 10% for looking people's contact information and 90% because everyone has migrated to using Facebook's messenger. Cutting it just down to the messenger is a godsend.

I am not so sure that was the most useful, I sure liked the main site chat to work on mobile even if I didn't want another app (messenger to be installed). Yeah i'm one of those few who prefer simple single app experience. I prefer if companies could try keep things a little more backward compatible. /rant

I agree with you. It must have been annoying for people who use the site and messenger. I meant I like that they can act as two separate things.

Hey that's cool. Didn't realise it existed. So much cleaner than the same stuff on facebook.com.

It's started to lag and be very clunk for me recently (though maybe I just need to close some tabs). It used to be incredibly more responsive than facebook.com
