Interesting. I'm surprised to hear that you've been so successful with that technique. My statement was slightly inaccurate. I have no idea how difficult it is to extract the content from the page once you're able to get it. What is more immediately challenging was to get FB to serve you the page at all. See https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/issues/2047

There were a handful of pages on Facebook that I used to keep tabs on that would have had to have been public as I do not have an account, but now I can't get FB to let me see some of them without a login (for example https://www.facebook.com/MadisonAudubon). I have no idea if my IP as been flagged, which they appear to do aggressively, or the pages were made private or FB introduced some addition settings and the pages are now configured or what.

I use a login. (Because I am primarily checking messages and notifications.) I cannot access that MadisonAudubon page at all without signing up or logging in. Apologies as I should have realised that the discussion was about retrieving "public" profiles/pages without being logged in. I seem to recall a time when that was universally possible but at some point, quite some time ago if I remember correctly, it started to become limited. I would imagine the reason public pages are created on Facebook is to gain access to Facebook users, who are more heavily surveilled than non-users. Public websites like https://madisonaudubon.org could mirror the content they post on Facebook. In practice, this never happens. Calling Facebook a "walled garden" is misleading. It may be "walled" but there's nothing garden-like about it.
