Facebook also gives me a fake notification on messenger every time I use the app or website. Sorry Facebook I don't want to use your incredibly subpar message

  They show the fake message notification on the mobile website (and I have my laptop right in front of me with no new messages in days) only to redirect to the store and download their messenger app. This is one of the darkest patterns I have seen outside of obviously scammy websites.

    I actually have the app installed and it still shows me a notification...I went so far as to delete all conversations and I still get that notification. I've contacted Facebook regarding the issue, they haven't bothered to respond. It's absolutely a dark pattern that makes me use Facebook less. But it's probably a good thing considering Facebook also apparently shares the content of those conversations
