v0.1.0
The first release of fb.
The first release. fb turns facebook.com into typed, scriptable data from a single pure-Go binary.
Highlights

its feed with
--posts, bounded by--limitor by date. - Posts. Pull a post with its text, counts, media, and preview comments
(
--comments). - Media. Stream photos, videos, and reels; resolve a single photo or video,
including playable sources with
--streams; list public events. - Discovery.

YAML, URL, and raw, with
--fieldsand--template.
Notes
- fb reads the public pages Facebook serves to search engines, so there is no
login and no cookie. It is explicit about the limits: private content exits
4with a login-wall hint, and feeds expose the most recent posts rather than the full history. - The binary is pure Go with no runtime dependencies and no browser.
