Text-based chatting is a simple matter of typing in the text box at the bottom of the Messenger pop-up for a contact and pressing Enter to send. Buttons to the left of the text entry field let you add images, stickers, and GIFs to your messages. You will also notice a series of buttons at the top of the chat window, they can be used to start a voice or video call. If you click the down arrow next to the name of the person you're chatting with, you can access additional chat options, such as creating a group chat with more participants.
Another way to chat on the desktop is to make use of the Facebook Messenger website, which you will find at messenger.com. This includes a pretty much identical set of features and options to chatting via the main Facebook website, but the interface is rather more spacious. In many ways, the Facebook Messenger website is essentially an app, and you can really treat it and use it as such.
If you prefer the idea of a dedicated app for your Messenger chats, there are desktop versions available for both Windows and macOS. There are many advantages to using the desktop app, not least of which is that it allows for easier navigation between chats and the other apps you are using, and there is scope for a neater arrangement of chat windows. You can download Facebook Messenger for Windows from the Microsoft Store, or for macOS from the Mac App Store. Both versions are also available directly from Facebook here.
After installing Facebook Messenger and signing into your Facebook account, you should see a list of your contacts,and you can start chatting right away. You may want to investigate some of the available options before you get started, however, so click your profile image to the lower left, followed by Preferences. Here you can configure settings such as whether the app should autorun at startup, change the appearance of notifications, and also choose between a light or dark theme.
Facebook Messenger is often associated with keeping in touch with friends and family while on the move, but it need not be limited to your phone. Being able to chat using your handset is definitely useful, but Messenger can also be used on your desktop computer or laptop. In fact, there are various ways in which you can access this ubiquitous chat tool.
The fact that it is possible to access Facebook Messenger on the desktop as well as mobile devices means that it's easy to keep in touch and keep the conversation flowing no matter if you're out and about, at home, or in the office. Chats are synchronized, so you'll not miss anything when you move from one device to another.
Facebook Messenger may be thought of primarily as a mobile app, but moving to the desktop does not mean making compromises or missing out on features. In some ways, chatting on the desktop version of Messenger will be better for many people, as it allows for the use of a full-sized keyboard. What are you waiting for? Jump in and try it out!

When scrolling posts on Facebook, there are random jumps up to 6 new posts forward. It is necessary to scroll back and look for the last displayed post (photo, video, txt). It looks like firefox doesn't remember the last displayed position before updating the cache. It is very annoying because there is always a flicker.
To undo the change, you can simply go back to change layout.css.scroll-anchoring.enabled from False back to True. As far as your error message, I have never experienced that issue so I can't provide a solution.
My browser does this too, only it seems to trigger the next loading zone and just keep scrolling unless I can force it up 6-10 posts before it can decide to do it again. I'm about to switch back to Chrome.
Yeah a post from over a year ago and still not a thing fixed, they blame it on third party add-ins, extensions, and themes anything but their own shoddy programming. Shoddy programming allows third party programs/websites content interaction to misbehave. Half the time all you have to do is nudge the mouse and the content starts bouncing around to the point that you cannot even select content like a form field, scroll content into view, I would blame it on Facebook's programming however it is not just Facebook, it is any and every website.
119.0 did not fix an issue causing unexpected jumps in the scroll position on Facebook. I am still experiencing this issue. I tried to fix it by deleting all caches and web data and restarting my device. No result.
I have used Firefox since it was called Phoenix but I've been using Edge for a year because of this bug. Wanted to use Firefox again so I tried the latest version (119). If anything, it's even worse than a year ago. Ridiculous.
p.s. It was better for a while but after that the problem still there. I agree it seems to be a FB problem. As they don't care I open in a new window every post wich seems to be interesting so they can't delete it...
I'm sure this is a Facebook problem, not a Firefox problem. I've discovered that FB decides it's time to update what's shown & just deletes all of the earlier posts. So if I decide I want to scroll back and see a post I'd read earlier, it's gone. I think that when it does one of its "updates" that's when it jumps down.
That's irrelevant. Facebook and Instagram, where this problem happens, are two of the most used pages on the internet. They have been doing it this way for two years and they are most likely not going to change, and they don't care. The ones suffering are Firefox end users, and Mozilla seing their users switching to other browser because Firefox doesn't work properly on the sites they are using.
The auto feed update is another issue that both facebook and instagram have (in any browse, in any device), and is normal. The auto scroll problem that's happening for more than a year now is when you scroll down the news feed, firefox start to auto scroll like crazy loading a lot of posts and you can't controll that.
I agree! The other day it was awful, then one day it worked great and I scrolled and read a lot of posts without any issues, but the next day it was back to awful! It has been jumping and and jumping and then jumping more, even while I'm trying to scroll back up to see what I've missed. Facebook is already selective about the posts it shows us, and if it loads these posts but jumps down the screen before we get to read them FB will think we've seen them anyway and never show them in our feed again.
I've not had the scroll-jumping issue on my Windows 10 Pro laptop in quite awhile. It seems to be fixed. I think it was cache-related. I still have some other issues which are not as bad, at least one of which also seems to be a cache issue. The first issue is that my feed will jump backwards a few posts most of the time when I "react" to a post using something other than the "like" button. I don't believe this is related to the cache. The second issue is that after I've been scrolling for awhile and then go into view all of the comments of a particular post, I sometimes cannot click "like" or any other buttons related to more comments. This happens not only in news feed but also if I'm scrolling a particular page (like a page that posts all sorts of unofficial news and has numerous posts every day) and scroll through a lot of posts. Because it only happens after scrolling for awhile, I believe this is also cache-related. Also, occasionally I will have trouble getting posts to load, either all posts or it will only load a few posts on a page and then stop loading. This must also be a cache issue, because I can usually just close the tab and open Facebook in a new tab and it will work again.
I think Facebook wants us to use apps rather than browsers; they can probably track us better. I think there is even a Windows app. I can't remember if I tried it once, a long time ago, and didn't like it, or not.
