I would like nothing more, but so few of my contact group are willing to switch away... despite all of Meta's bullshit. I resent being made to use it whilst their AI/ads encroach further and further.

Don't ask me for a phone number and I'll use it.

When did WhatsApp start allowing signups without a phone number?

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (7 children)

No clue. Never even tried to use it since it's a Meta product. I was referring to Signal's phone # requirement being a non-starter.

How about Delta Chat? At least as secure as Signal, open source, and decentralized.
