I Can't Share to Facebook Anymore

I share all my listings to Facebook. Today I am getting a message that says: "User opted out of Facebook platform." Am I the user or Etsy is the user? I didn't change anything on Etsy or anywhere else. I am able to share my eBay listings to FB and am able to access my FB as always. I just can't share my Etsy listings. Anyone else having this problem?

Etsy has been slowly pulling the plug on integrations ... it has not affected everyone all at once, but eventually it does.  FB, Pin, Insta, GetVela, eRank just to name a few.  I find when this happens, it is best to just copy/paste the listing URL into a new post thereby bypassing the app altogether.  So long as your Save & Share link are included in the post, you're good to go!

Oh my goodness, why would Etsy do that? I could understand why they wanted to stop integrations with PirateShip so that it would be harder for us to buy labels through PirateShip and we'd just get them from Etsy. But Facebook?! Many of my customers follow my shop because I post listings from here to FB! What is the point of this? It sounds like it's going to hurt business!

It's always money.

Etsy:  share links with the outside world so we don't have to spend on ads.

Also Etsy:  but I'm taking away all the stuff that makes sharing links easy, because, reasons.

Yes, I have the same issue. I am having to copy and paste a link to the item now on my Facebook posts instead.
