I hate Messenger, but unfortunately a lot of people in my circle use it. The only way I remember to reply is when my Mac gives me a little red number in the Dock when there are unread messages. I’m expecting grumpy friends who’ll complain that I never reply anymore 😅😅 Won’t a 3rd-party web-wrapper pop up? Otherwise I’ll have to make my own with Safari’s "Add to Dock".
