I'm a heavy Messenger user. Love the service. I mostly use it on my iPhone and iPad and those apps work well (I wish they had SiriKit integration...). I use the web interface when I have to, but I would really prefer a full native client for macOS as their web client routinely stops getting notifications and cannot make voice calls in Safari. The Windows 10 client is also painfully underdeveloped but at least it's not bound up in a browser tab. On topic, ML is a neat language family but I just couldn't get into it when I tried F# back in the day. I'm a Clojure fanatic through and through but the more projects using functional languages the better, even if it does use static types!

On a related note, their App on Android is shit, utter shit. I have a budget Moto G and my phone lagged till i uninstalled messenger. And on top of that, Facebook won't let me access messenger from their mobile website. Firefox used to work for me, but it doesn't anymore. Have to resort to mbasic.facebook.com. So much for mission of connecting the entire world, Zuck.

  I've got an old 2013 Moto X, and I've recently started using Messenger Lite on it. You'll likely need to manually install the APK, because it's not available in the Play store for the US market, but it's definitely a lot faster. https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/18/15659414/facebook-messenger-lite-how-to-install https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/18/15659414/facebook-messeng... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.facebook.mlite&hl=en https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.facebook.m...
