WhatsApp is a shithole. Communities, Channels, Payments, Avatars all these destroyed the simple chat app. Meta is aiming for a monopoly here.

Signal and Telegram pretty much useless if you don't have your needful people on the platform.

It's just not a battle I am willing to fight. Too many people I can't contact without Whatsapp and none of them willing to swap.

Thanks to EU, you'll be able to contact these people on WhatsApp without using WhatsApp.
