I'm getting this message on Facebook on one of my laptops:
"Unsupported Browser
You're using a browser that isn't supported by Facebook, so we've 
redirected you to a simpler version to give you the best experience."

It directs me to m.facebook for mobile browsers. How do I get normal 
facebook on this laptop? This never happened on my other PC's.

I had a facebook override in about:config. Deleted it and facebook is 
now normal.

What was the key name? I don't see it in my about:config

I use Facebook Purity (FBP) and the display of the pages in FB is due to 
an algorithm FB changed. The FBP site also offers a temp workaround on 
their revertsite.com. BUT - it does not always work for everyone and it 
will stop working for you after a certain amount of time.

I have tried in Firefox and Chrome and the new Edge. FB made the changes 
unilaterally and I don't see the functionality coming back. As it is 
(for me), I do not like th epush to make things look like the mobile 
app. I like the customization FBP gave me in controlling what I WANTED 
to see and not what Zuck wanted us to see.

Not sure the exact line in about:config, but it definitley had facebook 
listed in the line.
