On retina displays the icons (Emoji and other elements) are not displayed in the retina mode and look blurry. Is it possible to enable a retina mode?

After looking around messenger source code, I found out that they use a cookie name dpr to calculate the pixel ratio. You can enter require('PixelRatioConst') in dev tools console and see.

I tried to persist the cookie in electron but haven't success, so I end up alternating cookie header of all GET requests before sending to messenger.com

Any ideas on why this might be happening?

It's seems to be an issue with the Facebook retina screen detection. I have yet to find a workaround for it...

Caprine is not the only app with this issue: https://github.com/rsms/fb-mac-messenger/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=retina
