Hi Sarah. That’s not true about Facebook not allowing 3rd party apps to use
the service. I’m using Facebook with Miranda on my Windows 10 VM with no
problems. It also works on a Mac app called Trillian but unfortunately, the
developers have broken accessibility in that app with their latest update.

It's not just adium, but all third party apps that access messenger are no
longer aloud to access it. I personally don't miss it as I just use the
messenger app on the iphone or the web app I created with the app I mentioned
in the last message.

Hi.
Today I decided to use my mac again.
I have not used it for a long time, but today I picked it up.
I try and log in to adium, but I just get a message saying that
cookies is required.
Then I read on the internet and see that perhaps facebook doesn't
allow adium to be used any more.
Do you know anything about this?
