#ProTip I still have some distant friends who occasionally message me on fbook messenger.

I open a private session on mobile safari, log into fbook, then “request desktop site” and read/reply. I refuse to have fbook app installed on my phone.

However I stupidly use WhatsApp everyday...

At least WhatsApp is encrypted end-to-end. Messenger is not.

Messenger has a setting to encrypt your messages.

Not sure if it's on by default, but mine was turned on and I don't remember turning it on.
