Making the things I do harder, like slowing down FB.

@Desi I'm having that exact trouble with Facebook, reels are displaying but nearly nothing else. To the point that I'm ready to just close the account. I've never had such horrid troubles with FB, and I don't have it on my iphone, just on my windows computers.

What did you do to get it fixed?

[Desi]

Thanks so much for posting, I feel like I am going crazy since no one else is having issues! Yes, what you describe is exactly what I am experiencing. I unfortunately didn't fix it. It worked for a second and then back to nothing but reelz and blank pages. Do you have Windows 10 by any chance? I don't think that's the issue but I don't really know. Yes, it is so exasperating I am about to stop trying too. Didn't realize how much I check in on FB until I couldn't.

Wayne, I did explain why I posted in beauty but fine, hopefully people will continue to help me here in electronics.

FB works just fine on my phone, but my phone is tiny and I have vision issues so I can't really look at anything on it for too long. Still don't know how to get it working on my laptop.

@Desi Same here!! FB working fine on my iPhone.  I have Windows 11 Pro.

I opted out of all Meta products several weeks ago when they announced they were no longer fact checking. I haven't missed them at all.

Thanks, guess switching to 11 which I am reluctant to do won't help anyway.

Chesslady, is there a simple way to do that? I would give it a try. Thanks.

@Desi   can you do a reset to a previous date where all was working

Hi, I could if you can tell me how, I didn't even know we could do that, lol!

I managed to close some of the Meta ads, but it says that doesn't stop them from doing what they do - we just don't see it anymore. Guess what, it's even worse after shutting them.
