Hey ! all! 
I would not and can not recommend anybody to use the messenger app. It is only partically accessible now! Of course they did what they usually do, got it working well then ran an update that broke most of what they fixed! That has now become a general rule of thumb! It's commonplace!  Get used to it!

I use a braille display to operate my phone, and I can' only do it for a few moments, not nearly as long as it would take to do what I used to do on facebook. Besides, the web site should be usable and accessible.

> Subject: Re: [BlindTlk] [BlTlk] facebook I use Facebook on computer as well and, since the basic version went away, I barely use it for this very reason. I can only access 2 or 3 posts and can't find a way to move beyond those. I also have issues with JAWS jumping to the top or bottom of the page at random plus a lot of "clutter" such as it constantly saying "block quote, Facebook, block quote end". I have found that all of this makes Facebook pretty much unusable for me and, unless someone knows of some way around it that I haven't found, I personally will probably continue to avoid it. Sorry this isn't helpful all but to say I understand and am also frustrated. I remember previous list posts where the basic version going away was being discussed so hopefully there are/will be some solutions, but I don't yet know of any.
