I hate Facebook but realized I can’t uninstall the bloatware Messenger app from my phone since I actually need it for Facebook Marketplace (I usually use it for selling second-hand stuff and looking for other products/services). Also I have plenty of friends there and it might be good to reconnect with some without dealing with the spyware Meta shit.

Also something for WhatsApp would be good as well

    I’d suggest Signal Messenger as a alternative for WhatsApp. It’s an easy enough switch for most people and therefore I’m my opinion more practical. I was able to convince - over time - most of my peers to move over and could then cut off and delete WhatsApp.

      It’s worth mentioning that Facebook’s/Meta’s messenger apps use the Signal tech anyway.
