Group chats? They've replaced almost everything I used to use Facebook for.

SimpleX and Matrix are great alternatives.

Friendica lets you link your Matrix account.

Can you link your WhatsApp account to these though? I'm not going around trying to persuade everyone to get off WhatsApp. I'd be better off just using RCS.

True, but there are plenty of alternatives waiting in the wings the moment they try and fill it with ads

Most of my immediate family just does sms group chats. I don't keep up with the extended family, seeing them every other holiday is enough
