This didn’t happen to me, but rather, to someone in a Facebook group as me (I asked for permission to use this photo). There’s so much to take in here, but my all time favorite is the “This is a mistake”. I wish I knew what happened when you clicked that but the wording of that is hilarious to me. OF COURSE it’s a mistake, why on Earth would I choose for them not to see my comment? It almost seem like he was blocked by the original poster but that wasn’t the case. Other people had the same problem in this group. Your only two options are to complain or to accept your fate with “OK”. The wording for the error is also interesting. “You can’t connect with this person”, keeping with Facebook’s “original” goal of connecting people. Rather than, “You can’t post a comment right now”, they have to connect it back to the original poster. “They won’t see your comment” when in the background, no one can see Jason’s comments because they aren’t even “sending”, as if this comment is being sent like a text message rather than being posted like a comment. I would expect that type of wording in the Facebook messenger app, not the normal Facebook app.
