pls whatsapp stop copying from fucking telegram there should be a law to make it not possible this is killing competition
But 'Stories' are from IG, owned by Meta.. so... we rather stay quiet on this occasion xdd
Stories are the Meta's copy of snapchat.
This is kind of funny. Some of these features I would see see as Google's turf. However, since Google can't create a text messaging service, Meta can use their messaging app to encroach.
Awesome, maybe then I can get everyone I know to switch to a better platform.
Yep, when Meta bought it, I warned my group friend chats that the second they start trying to monetize it, I'm going to whine until they all switch to Signal. Guess it's time to start nagging
it really depends.
If it's different parts of the same system I really don't like if it gets split up to multiple apps. Take steam, there I need two apps, one for the general store and it's functions and one for communicating with my friends. In that case I'd rather would have one app that fits all.
But if I don't need several functions of an app and they are also hurting the experience with it, I'd rather would have the sourced out to other apps.
The thing is, in systems like WhatsApp we don't decide what is the best for us, but WhatsApp.
Maybe integrating some features is better, maybe separation. Or maybe third way, separated things under one package (for example all-in-one packages like Nextcloud or Thunderbird).
