    Don’t agree with that, if you keep the mind of “keep WhatsApp to have contact with people and don’t be alone”, what is not true, people will never stop using it.

      WhatsApp for some people can be integral to participation in academia (schools or colleges) or businesses. For them getting rid of WhatsApp is work suicide, hence the advice.

        I’m a student, ALL my friends use WhatsApp, you want to talk with me? Signal. Come on today people have mobiles with at least 64GB of storage, delete your nudes and install Signal.

          I wish I could do this. Facebook Messenger group chat is the platform of choice for organizing group projects at my university, and obviously I can’t refuse to communicate with classmates for assignments. I tried suggesting other platforms but practically no one is interested. Other communication, I direct them to email or Matrix.

          Personal chats is surely fine on other secure messengers, which is what my own OPSEC is. What I meant was that universities and schools have their groups for notes and announcements on WhatsApp, and one would not like to miss out on that essential information.
