Facebook recently rolled out a new version of Messenger. After years of bolting new feature after new feature onto a straining interface of tabs and sub-tabs, it’s finally shrunk the app to the essentials. That’s not a metaphor — the app is literally a quarter of the size it used to be. Facebook has alluded that some of the features it removed may make a comeback, but for now, the app is a much more manageable size.
So now that we’ve got basically an all-new Messenger, what’s in it?
