Decide if your privacy is more important than their convenience and your feelings of FOMO.
Right, but if I need to contact a friend or family. How am I supposed to do it without affecting privacy? If the other person doesn't use Signal or else.
Honestly, go back to sms. It is the least worst option compared to FB.
Exactly. When FB announced their metadata harvesting plans for WhatsApp, I decided I didn't want to be part of the problem and deleted my account. You can't make people quit a platform by whining about it. I'm on signal, telegram and good ol' SMS if they want to reach me or vice versa.
