Interoperability is a weird one though. Imagine WhatsApp can connect to Signal, and people use this feature. What would then be the point of using Signal, if WhatsApp gets the data after all?

(Signal has already announced not wanting to support this, I just used it as an example)

I prefer Signal to Whatsapp. IDC about Whatsapp having my data. The point is choosing the app which most suits your needs and wants.

So what needs do you have outside of a different look? Privacy doesn't seem to be one of them, and the two apps are very similar otherwise.

So I can use one app I like and message or call anyone I need to reach without having to set up 10 accounts.

[-] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Fair enough. Won't work with Signal though, they've stated that they will never open up

[-] Twink@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Signal is irrelevant. It's just an example. I can try Telegram or any other app.
