Hi, it says in the address bar (or whatever it's called on the Mac) that it's the mobile site, but it quite clearly isn't. Instead of getting things like notifications, messages etc we now get the stupid numbers at the top that don't announce themselves as links and don't tell you what they actually are. the first one appears to bee friend requests, so I discovered when clicking on it. I am in the UK and it's definitely not showing what used to be the mobile site, unless they've changed that too. I can't tell you when it changed because I don't really use Facebook, so this is the first time I've been on it for a while.
