To be clear, Shotwell is a GNOME project since it was recently moved to
git.gnome.org. But it's clearly not being developed anymore, so I would
not expect to see any fixes for it unless someone volunteers to help
maintain it. I agree with Bastien, the solution to this problem is for
Shotwell to use gnome-online-accounts rather than a separate API key.

Be warned there is a serious security issue which I've been meaning to
fix but haven't managed to yet: it doesn't verify TLS certificates [1],
so it's easy to get your Facebook password and session cookies. So even
if someone does fix the Facebook integration, you really should not use
it.
