Hi everyone,

I much appreciate the new Facebook/Twitter feed. Finally I can read some notifications without having to open the browser witht the mobile version of Facebook, but..... unuckly it doesn't work for all kind of notifications. For example: many notifications still don't show you anything and you have to "Open in Browser" if you want to read them. Also, in post comments, if someone replies with an image and a comment, you can just see the comment and not the image... so reading the comment without seeing the picture doesn't make any sense sometimes.

Do you think the Facebook feed could be improved a little more?

Cheers.

Also, could it become a real feed some day, instead of showing notifications only? You know, like the "Home" option in Friends app does. Sorry for posting this here but an other relevant question was closed after the latest software update was released.

There's some inconsistency how the notifications work and this is quite annoying. I don't know if this has to do something about the API Jolla uses, or how the notifications etc. are fetched from Facebook. But to clarify I've added some snapshots of what I'm talking about.

This is the basic view when selecting the Facebook notification. Commenting and liking the same post.

This is what is seen when I select to see the comments. Comments suggest opening in a browser.

And here's when I selected the liking of the post. Likes show both, comments and likes.

And I have noticet that it varies from time to time, which one shows the content of the post and which one suggests to open the notification in browser. This could be catecorized as a minor annoyance, but it would be very nice if the actions would be coherent.

This could be made to a separate bug report, but as there are already a few threads opened, I decided to answer to this. But see here the other posts: native-facebook-client-integrated-with-system-feeds-and-notificationsshow-facebook-feed-in-notifications-instead-of-opening-a-browser
