    I wish WhatsApp wasn’t the main form of communication in my area of the world.

    That’s the only one I’m on and it’s because I could not convince anyone around me to just use texts or download signal

      Yes you should break yourself from all of the US and Israeli tech stack. They cannot be trusted.

        It’s hard to get away from the hardware companies through. I’m all AMD because they’re a little less evil, but they’re in the same AI bubble and also currently doing little in terms of innovation since they already have the performance advantage

        You should break yourself from any tech stack that isn’t open source and either decentralized or federated if it’s an online service, regardless of country of origin.

        Neither do I, I only use it for sending and recieving messages. I don’t think anyone uses the AI bullshit that was added to it.

          No actually we all seem to loath that. Like anyone who has to use WhatsApp (like me) finds it annoying. You can tag it in a duscussion, for example, but other than that the productivity use is limited

            It was so much better when the search bar was just for contacts or chat messages instead of all the genuinely useless terms

              They’re trying to compete with telegram and X on some level, but it was always just meant to be a messaging app. Telegram works fine but it’s full of questionable users and channels.

                The dumb thing is that Meta owns Instagram and WhatsApp, so if every one of their apps have these features what’s the point of downloading more than one of them?

                EDIT: I misread telegram as Instagram lmao, but either way there’s no point in using any of them
