If not a FB user?

True. I don’t use FB never have and I can’t open any links.

Obviously, you would have to log in to access any links.

On the subject of Facebook. I am suddenly not getting any notifications. I used to receive them on my mobile and laptop. Any ideas?

Are you sure you have to log in into FB to open links that originate from there?

I have to log on to access them and I can't be bothered.

I haven’t got a FaceBook account (no intentions of ever having one).

When a link is posted on GN from FaceBook a message immediately pops up asking me to log-in to access it, consequently I do not bother with any links originating from FB.

What a shame. 😥 It doesn’t bear thinking about what we might be missing.

Thank you. I totally understand why many wouldn't want to be on FB. For me, it is agreat was to keep in touch with family and friends all over the world, see photos of the children, etc.

I didn't realise that FB links could not be seen unless a member.

Well, you'll never know, then. No need for being so rude, however.
