is it that hard? I uninstalled whatsapp long ago, my family and friends use Delta Chat to communicate with me because that is the only way to do so, it is not that hard, if you keep whatsapp installed then for sure people will think it is pointless to install other app if they can just contact you via whatsapp

about context, that whatsapp forced the AI into even the search field of WhatsApp is well known in the fediverse and people are complain about it loudly everywhere, was assuming this was well known news
