    Nice. There’s just a FOSS alternative for almost everything these days. I get 80% of my apps from F-Droid.

      The only non foss apps that I use are banking apps and whatsapp (forced to use it…). Everything else is foss.

        Look at Beeper as a alternative, let’s you bridge your WhatsApp chats.

          The only way you should trust anything bridging is if you self host it.

          Matrix with WhatsApp bridge is the only way to properly use that.

          WA bans your account for using it.

            Curious. Do they easily find you that you use it?

            If meta automatically detects that you use beeper and bans you then there is no point using it with WA. But in this case beeper wouldn’t advertise bridging to WA, right?
