  • I have a) ignored the fact you said about whatsapp because i was annoyed with the “inevitable” sentiment. sorry for that and fantastic step from you; And b) i have not used it in…i don’t even know, 6-8 years? I was very hopefull more people make a switch during the last time news came up. But i am also in europe and well aware how stupid the situation is, unfortunately.

    I am also aware how stupid many businesses are, but i am closer to the other end of the spectrum and just stubborn so i simply don’t partake. And i will be complaining, but obviously without much reach in my echo chamber of people who switched anyway.

    But what i mean is really that there can be change, slowly and gradually but it works. I my of my close family and most of my few friends to Signal and slowly i see this spreading to aquaintances. Like my bouldering group switched lately, which was a very nice surprise to me.


  • Or you know, people can start to move? Always this ridiculous expectation, “i only move if everyone uses it”. Like how is thay supposed to work?

    No, not everyone needs to make a cold cut, even though it would be better. But you can start using e.g. Signal and maybe one or two of your friends would too. And slowly more and more people would migrate. It’s a process, but if most people don’t even bother then of course it won’t go anywhere.











  • More like when it threatens some status quo or be inconvenient for them to deal with or might cause a shift to some power dynamics.

    I mean nobody(western leaders) gives a fuck about whatever is going on in Africa and Asia. And it’s quite literally mindboggling how the shit in Urkaine and Palestine is still ongoing without any major consequences for the aggressors other than mayyyybe harsh words or hurrdurr sanctions. Soo…as long as it does negatively not impact then, world leaders don’t give a shit about what other countries do.
