A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The day that happens I can hopefully uninstall this thing already. Most of my friends use it, they're really big here in Europe. Pretty hard to move to another app.

If that doesn't convince your friends, nothing will.

I use iMessage to text my close friends. But I live in a country where WhatsApp is a verb.

So I do end up using WhatsApp and in my experience, it’s already riddled with ads

I don’t see how it can be any worse tbh. Instagram ads are way better imo.
