Interdependent Thoughts

That’s Whatsapp deleted too. Which completes removing myself from the Facebook company services. My preferred messaging apps are Signal and Threema, and I’ve been using them for years for 95% or so of my messages. I kept Whatsapp as a passive inbox, for some of my network, never initiating contact there, but at least being reachable through it. However over time I noticed a creeping growth of my Whatsapp interaction, something I’ve been trying to avoid for 2 years. Reading Om’s posting yesterday, and especially the conversation with Lilia in the comments today made me conclude that Whatsapp needs to go too. Because of the company that owns it.
