Have you logged on to the social media platform Facebook and now want to chat with friends? To do this, however, you have to see who is online. This is relatively easy on Facebook.

Dealing with the chat on Facebook

To see who is at Facebook is online, you must of course first log in with your user data or register if you do not already have one Account to have. It's very easy, but you should provide as little information as possible.

  1. If you are online on Facebook and now want to chat with friends, you will see all of them in the narrower column on the left friends Listed with a photo that are currently online. Please note that everyone who wants to chat has a green point and those who are marked with a gray point do not want to be written to if possible.
  2. If you are online yourself, you can also open the window "Chat" to open. Here you can also see who is online. The regulation with the green and gray dots also applies here, but the "Chat" is already sorted according to this.
  3. If you cannot see who is online in the left column or in the "Chat", it is probably because you went offline yourself. "Go offline" in this case means that your profile picture will appear with your friends with a gray dot. You will see this in the chat window in the lower right corner as "Chat offline". You can change this setting by clicking on the chat window. Your status will then automatically be changed to online and you can see who is online.
  4. If you have a lot of friends, there are other options: On the one hand, you can search for specific friends in the left column if you want to know whether they are online. On the other hand, you can vary the chat display in the chat window under "Options" and "Friends lists".
  5. Set up absent status on Facebook in the chat - this is how it works
