Knowing what a privacy nightmare all meta apps are, I’m wondering if there is an alternative option which is more privacy friendly but still has some of the ease and simplicity of some features such as messenger.
I already know there will be friends I can’t convince and thats fine, I may just have to accept that. But if I could avoid using it as much, I’d really like to.
Going to echo the choir and say signal. It’s honestly the best chat app I’ve used. I’d recommend it even if it wasn’t encrypted at rest.
It requires a phone number. I haven’t got one. What else is there for people like me?
Matrix, SimpleX, XMPP
