  • I remember the days when I spent time convincing people to use chat apps. The last one that stuck was WhatsApp.

    I’ve since stopped installing new chat apps because people won’t use them.

    WhatsApp just works. Wanna video call my Mum? Push a button. Wanna send a Lemmy meme to my mates? Yeah it’s 3 taps.

    I open up Facebook on me birthday and press the ❤️ on the birthday messages then shut it down and don’t use it for another year.

    But if I do that with WhatsApp then I don’t hear from people I actually care about.

    I actually have a friend that refuses to use WhatsApp like I do with FaceFuck. “How does she do it then?” I hear you ask.

    She uses Facebook Messenger.

    That’s the hold Meta has on our communications
