Dear restaurant owners, do not link to Facebook. Otherwise, your customers see:
- Error message: Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid.
- A big login prompt, that cannot be dismissed.
What your customers don’t see:
- Your menu
- Your location
- Your opening hours
Also, #Facebook hides your browser tab history so when you land on that awful page, you can’t easily press back button to get back to, say, Google search results. They’re the Hotel California of websites.
It’s one of the most evil, anti-user web #design decisions in years, and heaven help the Facebook product team if I ever run into them in a dark—or even well-lit—alley. 🤬
