Leaving Facebook messenger group chats

I recently removed myself from an old inactive groupchat I was in.

Since I left, does it bring the chat to the top of the chat listings of the other group members, given that it says person X left the group chat?

Just wondering. Thanks!

I don't know. Does it matter? You left the group.

Well I mean if you don’t know why reply to my thread.

I mean, if you left the group, why are you so invested in what happens to it?

Leave it and let go. I hope letting go has helped you

I’m not invested, I just wondered if it brought it to the top of the other people’s listings as I wondered if they’d see I’ve left!

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t bring it to the top. I have looked back through my messenger and there are some old group chats where people have left but the messages still seem to be placed chronologically where the last message was sent and doesn’t look like it’s been brought any higher when the person left and I don’t remember ever getting a notification when people have left groups. Pretty sure they’ll only see it if they actively open/ look back on the chat.

Only if it the most recent thing. It will most likely get drowned out by other people's post anyway.

Thanks. It was an old mum’s group I was in when one of my DC was at school but I don’t speak to those mums anymore and was just curious if it moved the chat to the top of people’s lists since I left.

It does - it happened to me a few weeks back, someone left a group (that wasn’t posted in for over a year) and it popped it to the top
