Fed up to the back teeth with Facebook basic on desktop

hey all,
I am absolutely fed up to the back teeth with the Facebook basic site.
For awhile now, every time I try and respond to a comment on the desktop, I get the message, content not available. Even with my own stuff.
It's the same in Safari and Google Chrome.
I have heard of some Windows users having this bug as well. It is driving me to distraction.
For now, I have to use the main site which is not a very pleasant experience or, I have to use my phone.
I've tried signing out and back in, I have clear browsing data, it certainly is not anything at my end.
Is anyone else having this bug?

I can not even find any link. Just shows facebook logo. JAWS just reads facebook. Nuts.

I also use Windows 10. The basic Facebook site does the same for me and has for months now. It does not matter what browser I use.

Facebook Accessibility

It seems pretty unlikely that anybody from FB reads Applevis. Of course, I could be wrong. But why not notify them directly?

I know it has been reported as well.

I have heard that this has been reported to Facebook but still no fix for the problem.

Accessibility was not a consideration at Facebook with the latest revisions to their website. They have created a cluttered and complex site with no easy way for screen readers to navigate the content. I find myself using Facebook very infrequently as a result.
