You're not redirected to use the Messenger app when trying to check messages on mobile. For a bit, while on the B side, I could request a desktop site on Chrome for Android and then still use the m.facebook.com subdomain. Now that I'm on the A side, I can't use that workaround.

I've been told other m.facebook.com wrappers like Tinfoil were affected by this as well.

Use mbasic.facebook.com. Works like a charm! (so far)

That's even an option on the laptop!

FaceSlim currently works great as a Tinfoil replacement until they work around redirect.
