That's great news! I let all my contacts switch to other messengers if they want to stay in touch.
-
I genuinely hope this happens so I can push my friends towards Signal.
-
I bailed to signal the day after Facebook bought whatsapp. No regrets and nothing lost :)
-
Hope you have more luck, Viber is extremely annoying with their notifications and ads and almost everyone here still uses it. Can't get away from it but at least it's not whatsapp I guess...
-
Never heard about viber. I guess I'm just lucky!

Could someone decompile it and knock out the ad code like on ReVanced?
-
Remeber when whatapp was a paid service before Facebook bought them
-
Nah, it was always free. Never paid anything on my personal no and WhatsApp always gave extension.
-
Luckily most of my chats are on Telegram :)
(Yes, I know the server is not open-source and blah blah blah, but to be honest most of my contacts are on Telegram, after WhatsApp)
-
Telegram is great. Pioneers of chat apps, honestly. They have every feature first, and no matter how many they add, their app seems to never become a bloated piece of shit.
I've recently switched from Telegram to RCS, but I used Telegram for nearly a decade.

Maybe that'll finally get my family to migrate to Signal
