Deprecated Facebook Connector(s)


@Friendica Support
Hello again!
I just had the great or dump idea (could not test it out yet) to reactivate my Facebook account to advertise the #fediverse, and especially #Friendica . I drew my motivation from the text
With Friendica, you can also fully interact with anyone on Twitter, post on Facebook and receive any content on Tumblr, Wordpress or RSS. Friendica allows you to integrate most things on the web via a range of addons such as ITTT, Buffer; you will be able to easily control your own data as you decide.

But then I read:
Facebook Connector, Facebook Post Connector and Facebook Sync plugins are deprecated. As of the moment you cannot bridge from or to Facebook with Friendica.

How about updating the README.md regarding the state-of-the-art in 2022?

BTW: I will nevertheless try to motivate the local Facebook crowd to have a try with #Friedica , evnen though I loved the idea to post there directly from the #fediverse .

Cheers
@Marek Bachmann :friendica: If you're familiar with git, please submit a pull request. If you're familiar with GitHub, you can also do this change directly from the website.
I'll try my best within in the next 24h :-)
The full Twitter interaction is still functional, though? (Never used it myself)
@Marek Bachmann :friendica: Yes, I use it regularly, although this may change with the advent of this new era for the platform.
