You also can't just switch from whatsapp to signal. I have hundreds of contacts on whatsapp that message me constantly there, and 2 on signal.

    @jonjuan That's totally true! I tried to use WhatsApp just for work and Telegram for my friends and contacts, but only my wife and mom were talking to me there 😂. However, I think it's important to keep talking to people about alternatives. That way, we can switch from this "proprietary web" to a free one.
