      Without whatsapp I would essentially be losing contact with my family and a ton of friends and colleagues. And some businesses even use it. Do I want to, no. Have I got some people on signal, yes. But there simply isnt a way for me to cut it out of my life unfortunately.

        Come on, just do it. Do it ! I have never had Whatsapp installed, ever ! Never had an issue staying in touch with my family, friends and doing business and chores.

    You’re fooling yourself if you think Lemmy/mbin content isn’t getting scraped and thrown into LLMs. There’s nothing stopping it and they’re not huge on consent.

    It’s not embarrassing to still be using any Meta product?

    It’s like being worried because you recognized the guy in front of you at the checkout line at the dildo emporium as your priest…

    It would be awkward if he turns around, but he’s got a shopping cart of dildos too, how is he gonna judge?
