I don't have messenger on my phone either (and never had since I don't have a smartphone) and yet, until a few days ago Caprine used to work fine on my laptop computer running Ubuntu.
So, that is the reason why it is not mentioned that this will not work if you do not have messenger on your phone : it's because it's supposed to work !
It looks like the reason it has stopped working is because Meta has made some changes recently. Let's hope a solution will be found soon.

For me messenger.com does not work on the browser, neither on desktop or phone, it asks for the phone app.
However "facebook.com/messages" works on the desktop (not phone). Caprine is of course not a phone app. I wonder if the url for caprine could be changed to "facebook.com/messages"? This would not work for people that have only a messenger account though. So perhaps a solution would be to make the url configurable by the user.
Edit: I just created a feature request for this: #2144

set location.href to something other than the current page
can You explain more ?
edit: okay, i fiddled around and chats loaded. not sure why and how, since i didn't change anything in the html or address, but surprisingly it works now every time i start caprine, which proves it's possible to skip this stupid limitation.
edit2: nope, after 5–6th relaunch it's back to "…phone to continue bs" ← also happens over time.

Indeed, you're not supposed to have the messenger app on your phone for Caprine to work, but I have recently experienced the same problem. It seems that if you:
- launch Caprine
- open dev tools (F12)
- set location.href to something other than the current page
- close and restart the app
Caprine will go back to displaying your chats, at least temporarily. I think the right kind of URL that Caprine should be opening on is something like: 'https://www.messenger.com/t/<CHAT_ID>'.
