Why? When Facebook is down, you cannot use Facebook to communicate about the issue. That is also reason why FB still uses* irc instead of messenger for coordinating how to resolve such issues. * Or at least used 1 year ago, when I was worki

This is more of an old web, and because of bad design: keeping state of the app on server, rather than in the browser (or are you referring to limiting open in new tab?). But yes, I hate the new web too (sometimes).

No, it's more like a patch. In branch, you drag with you all the dependent changes, while with patch, you have only the actual change, and information which CL -- or PR in github terms -- is dependent. With branches, if someone updates

Or the FB's own thing is not ready yet. You might get software update to add FB's assistant if/when they do it. Or, voice assistant is not the market FB want to compete on.

No. You own your data stored at Facebook. Facebook just have license to use "as they wish" while respecting your privacy settings (i.e. uploading facebook.tax.xz is definitely not according to privacy settings of most people). At
