I think I got the TLS error the other day, and I think it's facebook's fault rather than the plugin's - but it comes and goes. Overall, agree with the approach as the way this thing is built is dreadful to say the least; without an upstream maintainer it can only get worse. So, raise your candle/lighter/hand for a fallen soldier. As a previous maintainer of this package, just stating that I agree wholeheartedly with Jonas here. This broke a lot of the time and without an upstream dev to patch it up every other month, it is a lost cause. If someone forks it on GitHub and makes it go, then we can revisit. Until then, it is dead and we should be realistic about that.
