Alright, in the future I will likely run an Android VM with WhatsApp using a physical SIM bought with cash or a virtual SIM bought with monero
I see,
But at this rate, you gonna always make sure whatsapp runs on a VPN AND behind a kill switch so it doesn't leak,
also maybe you're interested in using tailscale or netbird to skip the port forwarding / domain hassle so you can connect to your matrix server and use the bridge in minutes.
There's a new foss netbird client for android if it satisfies.
Ofc, I always have killswitch on my VPN, using alternatives didn't cross my mind so thanks, I'll also keep the client in mind
