I have been trying to keep all the tips, tricks, and resources that I think would be useful for folks migrating from Facebook and Instagram (as well as current Bluesky users) in one place:
linktr.ee/ComeTogetherLinktree
I also created a separate resource list specific to Friendica:

#friendicahelp #facebook #bluesky #meta #metarefugee #instagram #fediversehelp

Thank you for both replies! It would be fantastic if Friendica could allow the import of Facebook data, as I think it would encourage more people to make the transition if they knew they could keep their old posts and photos. I will keep my hopes up and eyes out for this development!

Apologies in advance, as I am new here and was unable to figure out how to search to see if my questions had already been answered.
First, I found a very old post on GitHub indicating it is possible to connect Friendica to Facebook:
github.com/friendica/friendica…
However, I have been unable to locate a Facebook connector in Settings, and my understanding is that this functionality is no longer available due to updates on the part of Facebook.
Could you please confirm that it is no longer possible to connect Friendica to Facebook?
And a separate but related question:
Is it possible to import Facebook data to Friendica after exporting either HTML or JSON files from Facebook?
