Hi Everyone!

First, a huge thank you for the incredibly warm welcome to the Fediverse. The kindness from this community has been overwhelming, and such a contrast to the platforms I've left behind.

Now, I've gone down a total rabbit hole investigating more ethical tech. I've just realised that if I'm deleting Meta from my life, WhatsApp should probably go too. I'd love to know what you think are the best alternatives. Signal? Matrix/Element?

@sophiekaz Hi! I use Signal, but it is an uphill struggle to get family members etc. on board.

I've gotten my family members to switch, as well as a couple friends. They still use WhatsApp but at least they use Signal to chat with me so it's a start.
