Nothing came of this "wave", if I'm not wrong, right.

edit: and it seems down to me right now.
edit2: it works... but slower, than just going to regual HTTPS version with Tor. Which makes sense, because it needs to hop more.
edit3: .... but it doesn't let me log in, as I am logging from "suspicious location".
- glenneroo 6y agoI still use Facebook via Tor quite often, even though it's barely usable - loading anything takes between 3 and infinite seconds (i.e. never loads, requiring multiple refreshes). I use it to let them know that people still use it, with the hopes that they don't even remove it. I don't have this problem with other Tor sites, so it leads me to believe they want to be able to advertise it as "we offer this because we care" while making it nearly unusable to the point that nobody will use it. It's very similar to the secure chat feature, which they continually move deeper and deeper into menus, each move progressively more difficult to find. They just yesterday enabled the new "layout", and I can't even find the secure chat feature anymore, they either buried it so deep or removed it entirely?
