Edit - y’all are awesome! I’m gonna check out all of these - thank you!!

A family member is moving out of country and convinced the best way to keep in touch is with WhatsApp. I really don’t want to install any Meta shit on my phone.

Any recommendation for a FOSS or other alternative from a company that’s less of an ethical dumpster fire?

    This is cool, are there downsides? Like will messages be strangely formatted or anything for my contacts?

    Also, are there bridges for other apps? Signal, telegram, messenger? I’d love to have one messenger app to rule them all

      Works great for me. Only oddity is “quotes” in Discord sometimes dont show the content unless you tap on them. And yes, look at the bridges page for more. https://www.beeper.com/ is a hosted version of this with a custom app.
