Deleted my Instagram three weeks back because my feed was 1 ad for every 3 posts. Haven't missed it.
If I could only get rid of Whatsapp, I would never need to use anything from this awful company
Although I tried getting one friend to switch today, didn't work because of network size. I'm afraid our only alternative is to organize all our really cool stuff on Signal and get 'em with FOMO.
If only there were some means for people to use whatever apps they liked and for these to communicate with each other.
My family was easy. No pics of my daughter on any social network. "Y'all want pics? install Signal. If I catch you posting on FB, you're cut off"
Once mom installed Signal, the rest followed.
As to my friends, the ones I actually care for are privacy freaks like me - although they're not techies - and understood its importance.
