@adbenitez having said this, I know more than one person who administer larger group chats in #WhatsApp (100's of members), and an important feature for them is that the administrator of the group can set the group "read-only" for most members. This is to stop people from posting whatever they want. This rigidly locks the group topic to what the few privileged posters post. This very much makes it like a "one-way" mailing list, where you either subscribe, or you don't (but you don't really contribute postings back in an open discussion). This is to silence unruly upstarts who might actually compete with, or run across the grain of the chat room's more narrow, focused, stated intent. These more strongly hierarchical-minded types would not like #Deltachat (nor #RSS, sadly, which is what I would prefer to recommend to them).
I'm trying to convince these "glorified mailing list" types to use #Signal (has group features similar to WhatsApp), but the progress is very slow.
@aram So that makes #WhatsApp's "end-to-end encryption" quite leaky doesn't it?
All WhatsApp users urged not to miss out amid seven major changes

#Whatsapp frisst #Smartphone-#Speicher — so räumen Sie ihn wieder frei
#signal macht das Fressen noch deutlicher.
A los que promocionan @signalapp como el mal menor frente a #Whatsapp: es saltar de la sartén al fuego.
Promocionad #Quicksy (en #Android) o @Monal (en #iOS). Literalmente lo puedes instalar y empezar a usar aunque tengas un hachazo en la puta cabeza.

#WhatsApp krijgt steeds meer niet end-to-end versleutelde, openbare onderdelen in de app.
Ondanks dat promoten ze de app als goed voor je privacy en privé.
Hierdoor delen jongeren veel meer openbaar dan ze beseffen.
