How can I forward Facebook messenger messages to email?
I can't think of any way.
There is a Facebook plugin for Pidgin, and you can get at your chats that way with a more versatile cross-platform messenger, if you are more normally on other chat services.
https://pidgin.im/
https://github.com/dequis/purple-facebook/wiki
If you want web-based clients, try a multi-app client such as Ferdium, RamBox or Station.

How to use messenger without Facebook?
You can still use the official clients. Also, there are third party clients for Messenger. I've used https://github.com/dequis/purple-facebook with Pidgin.

"<none>:1: Parse error: unexpected identifier `taNewMessage', expected value"
This is a common issue in the facebook plugin. See https://github.com/dequis/purple-facebook/issues/514 for more information.

Pidgin: The Universal Chat Client
I went to try the Pidgin Facebook plugin, and I couldn't login. There's no more app passwords as the plugin suggests, if you try to login without the 2 factor Facebook sends "Is This You?" notifications every time, but doesn't let you login if you say yes.
There's github issue[1] for it and no resolution, except a weird python script hack to do 2 factor which may or may not be reliable.

Unfollow Everything developer banned for life from Facebook services for creating plug-in to clean up news feed
I use Pidgin on desktop and found a custom plugin that re-allows you to connect to Facebook's messaging service. I'm basically invisible and when someone sends me a message, it shows up in Pidgin but doesn't send a read receipt or let others know I'm typing back (even though I can see when they're typing).

Unlocking Discord Nitro Features for Free
There’s a lot of instances, for example the developer of one of the alternative clients https://github.com/Bios-Marcel/cordless

Removing discord client cordless from package manager
The cordless project https://github.com/Bios-Marcel/cordless is now abandoned and archived, and the maintainer has been banned for a ToS violation.

We shouldn't use Discord to help with issues
The developer of the cordless Discord client got banned, presumably for using a third-party client.

Trademark Actions Against the PostgreSQL Community
The only blocking issue is that their success (and subsequent spam/abuse issues) is greater than their focus on open access, to the extent that they formally disallow 3rd party client access.
So at the one end of the spectrum with have IMAP/SMTP, in the middle we have things like Telegram (everything's GPL3! The protocol is terrible and here are all the details! Go nuts!)... and at the other end we have Discord: One Protocol, One Allowed Client™®©.
Do I use Discord? No.
Would I like to use Discord? Yes.
Why can't I use Discord? The client is too much for my older laptop.
Would I like to use Discord? Yes there are a pile of people on there I'm missing out
Can I do anything about it? Yes, I have two options:
1) use https://cancel.fm/ripcord/ until it suffers the same fate as https://github.com/Bios-Marcel/cordless
2) throw the whole thing to the wind until I have better hardware
Hmm. You know come to think about it the chances are people with similar interests are probably also stuck on older hardware too and probably won't be using Discord either...

How Discord Stores Billions of Messages (2017)
> There are alternate Discord clients, and — unlike Slack — Discord doesn't try to actively prevent people from writing alternate clients against their API.
Yes, they do.
https://github.com/Bios-Marcel/cordless:
> Hey, so I know this is somewhat of a bummer, but I got banned because of ToS violation today. This seemed to be connected to creating a new PM channel via the /users/@me endpoint. As that's basically a confirmation for what we've believed would never be enforced, I decided to not work on the cordless project anymore. I'll be taking down cordless in package managers in hope that no new users will install it anymore without knowing the risks. I believe that if you manage to build it yourself, you've probably read the README and are aware of the risks. I'll keep the repository up, but might archive it at some point. And yes, you'll still be able to use existing binaries for as long as discord doesn't introduce any more breaking changes. However, be aware that the risk of getting a ban will only get higher with time!

- Wish we could bring a Discord terminal client like this back
- Test

No shield of privacy though
Worth noting the developer of another third party client, Cordless, recently had their account disabled, which ended with the project sadly being abandoned.

How to be social in the terminal
To be honest, I am a fan of the excellent cordless application. Unfortunately, the creator was banned from the service for violating the terms of service. So it is not recommended anymore.
