Title: Jabbernaut Facebook login
Post by: Tosher on July 19, 2025, 04:12:03 AM

Hi everyone,

I was trying to connect my facebook account to jabbernaut so I can use it on my old mac. I'm a bit confused by the instructions within the Facebook login in the jabbernaut app. It says "If the URL to your Facebook page looks like this <https://facebook.com/john.doe> your username is "john.doe".". From what I can see my facebook page url looks like this: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=2938479823749 (not the actually number). So what would I put down for username?

Is this XMPP? I don't think that's worked with Facebook for over a decade now.

Like rvense said, it's been dead for a while now. We have a Jabber/XMPP server up and running if you'd like to use modern chat protocols with your old Mac. Facebook is one of the supported protocols.

But if you erally want to use Jabbernaut, there was an unreleased version 0.6 we got built, even for m68k:
