#WhatsApp ora permette di ricevere messaggi da app di terze parti autorizzate. Questa è un'ottima notizia per l'interoperabilità! Purtroppo al momento l'unica app "alternativa" è #BirdyChat (che non conosco). Quando arriveranno anche Signal e Matrix? Spero presto.

Fala forte da @isadora no https://youtu.be/dNmUZvM5CUA:

WhatsApp Is Getting an Instagram-Style Close Friends Feature for Status

WhatsApp Is Getting an Instagram-Style Close Friends Feature for Status

@seymour @ambiguous_yelp #WhatsApp itself poses a barrier because it forces users to share their phone numbers during registration. My point is that tools shouldn't introduce their own communication methods, but rather use existing ones.
#diday (the #WhatsApp to #Signal switch) is making people lonely. Convince anyone who isn't already a nerd to use signal doesn't work. And most people are not interesting enough for people to follow them. I know I'm not :D - not even the Kängeruh #marcuwekling fans are switching.

@rocking_horse That means we all go to #WhatsApp because the barrier to communion with as many people as possible is the least? 🤷🏼♂️
Er hat seine blinden Jünger nicht davor gewarnt, dass #Signal genauso #Metadaten verrät wie #Whatsapp (siehe Video) ohne das der User etwas mitbekommt.
Er hat sie nicht gewarnt, dass die Software dafür, für jedermann verfügbar ist:

Was Whatsapp und Signal verrat...
@benpate yeah. I understand completely and I feel the same way that the space for communication tools is over saturated. But I do see a value in #matrix for private communication. Private/Direct #messenging in the fediverse is not good and I feel it would take a huge effort to fix it. At the same time there is in matrix already a separate solution that gives me hope about replacing #whatsapp #signal #telegram etc in a way that more aligns to my values and overlaps those of the fediverse.
WhatsApp empieza a abrir la puerta… y no es poca cosa 👀
Ya se pueden activar chats con apps de terceros, aunque de momento llega con cuentagotas y pocas opciones
¿Es el principio del WhatsApp interoperable que Europa lleva años pidiendo? 🤔

Going back to communicating via text message. WhatsApp is a no go. Signal leaves messages somewhere and then they get dragged out when you send another message. Might even start ringing people again.
