  • In addition to my answer to your original request, I can inform about stuff related to WhatsApp.

    You can use WhatsApp on a Matrix server with a bridge. You can either selfhost or find a server which has the WhatsApp bridge.

    There is also Beeper - now acquired by Automattic (WordPress, …) - which is a company matrix server with many bridges (they employed the person developing most of them). You can use a FOSS matrix client like Element X or their own client which is not FOSS but requires far fewer permissions than the WhatsApp app















  • This is my 1000th comment on Lemmy and I think it’s a good time to take a look back. It’s already been 2.5 years, and although I haven’t participated much, I feel I have started to learn a lot and grow politically thanks to Lemmygrad, Hexbear more recently, and a few comrades on lemmy.ml and other instances (even the occasional .world). 2 years ago I was very much a lib. Now I sometimes take the time to read through articles, made a list of books to read and bought a few, to my family and I. To reflect, time passes too quickly and I haven’t read the tiny Engels book on my night stand. I’m lucky enough to not have a physically demanding job but at the end of the day I’m still exhausted and drained. I wish others in my branch could realize we are very much exploited, even though it is at different degrees. Another bothering point is that even the leftist of my friends has a hard time challenging the non stop propaganda we are fed, and it’s depressing

    This comment was a mess. Thank you Lemmygrad, keep it up, and for those who have the energy to explain basic things to liberals: yes, it matters
