When I'm on my phone and click a link in Facebook I want it to open in
my normal browser, but it defaults to an "in-app" browser. I
really don't like in-app browsers, and I think Alex
Russell's explanation of their problems is very good. I've turned
this behavior off, but Facebook regularly forgets my decision, most
recently a few weeks ago. The setting had moved since
the
last time I did this, so here are screenshots showing how to turn
it off on Android:
Click on the icon of your profile image overlaid with a hamburger menu
in the upper right, and scroll to the bottom:
Click "Settings & privacy":
Click "Settings":
Click "Profile settings":
Click "Media and contacts" settings:
Toggle "Links open externally":
