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.

@twoowls73 @sophiekaz Here in Canada, shortly after January 21st last year, when Trump was inaugurated and all talk was 51at state, 20 people in my friends and family network agreed in one day to immediately drop WhatsApp and move to Signal. It's not that hard.
