Only have messenger left. Considering doing another push to convince my stubborn friends to go on signal. Then I can finally be rid of meta

noai duckduck go

I see what your saying, its just my friends have no interest in signal (tried a few times) so messenger is a compromise.

Oh yeah i just mean delete the app to make me stop looking at it. It was an addiction for me. Well, not facebook but instagram was.

There is an end to end encrypted feature, with a 6 digit pin to decrypt the keys I believe. a 6 digit pin isnt the most secure, but its better then nothing for typical conversations.

Annoyingly there is a feature that u can summarise texts with using AI, which ofc breaks privacy, but u can turn off message sharing (meaning you and the other person can no longer do that)

A few glaring alarm bells around privacy on messenger, but again, better then nothing.

The toxicity of instagram and the hollow content on facebook made me delete them. I still have messenger however, since convincing people to install signal is difficult, and also it is useful to communicate with new friends (considering the alternative is unencrypted sms)

But wow its so good to be off it

If you haven’t already, chuck linux onto some laptop/pc. In the future we may have OS level age verification needed and linux should be more immune
