Can you easily communicate in your country (business/private life) without being involuntarily forced to use whatsapp? - Lemmy.world

… is it possible to do any kind of business and/or have regular conversations without having to use whatsapp as a main way of communication? If you’d like you can say in what country you’re living.

I chose to “force” my way out of WhatsApp and facebook messenger. All my friends and family used it, as well as some colleagues. I managed to move my family group chat to signal, and then chose to lose all the other group chats and see how it would work after a few months. In the end, the most important people to me moved with me. As for the other ones, it made planning for events and such a bit harder, but it didn’t prevent me from keeping in touch with anybody.
