If you take message privacy seriously then use #Signal. This app is far better than #WhatsApp, #iMessage, #Google Messages, etc.

iMessage-Sticker-Apps: Warum viele bald aus dem App Store verschwinden könnten
Mit iOS 10 führte Apple im Jahr 2016 eine neue Funktion für iMessage ein: Entwickler:innen bekamen die Möglichkeit, interaktive Apps direkt in die

New: #DeAppleification project 
Good hardware, if overpriced 
Bad software & services, deliberately lacking #interoperability 
Today, I shut off Apple's closed #iMessage service entirely. Now using #Beeper as a universal inbox, with #Signal, #WhatsApp & #Slack DMs 
Goal: shutting off all services will make it much easier to switch to cheaper hardware in future. Which is why Apple’s entire business model depends on tying their hardware to their software & services

"Save Social - Wie bekommen wir ein besseres Netz?"
#Signal und #Threema können sich aussuchen, ob sie Daten mit #WhatsApp austauschen wollen oder lieber in ihrem sicheren Netz bleiben. WhatsApp und #iMessage mussten Schnittstellen zur Verfügung stellen.
90% Marktanteil vom WhatsApp in Deutschland.
#Fediverse weiterhin nicht besonders hoch frequentiert. #Mastodon-Organisation wird zukünftig noch mehr unterstützen.
Finally migrated the last remaining #Telegram group chat I cared about and said good riddance to Telegram. The group was a vestige from yesteryear when this group was split between iOS and Android (we're all blue bubbles now).
All the group chats I'm responsible for are now either on #iMessage or #Signal. 
My final battle ground is the a handful of #WhatsApp group chats that I care about but don't have enough influence over. Yet.
One issue in switching from #iOS to #Android - #iMessage won't let go of a lot of my texts...
I turned it off on all my devices before I switched phones, but for some reason it is still intercepting them somewhere and they are going in to a void.
Anyone know how to force Apple to stop messing with SMS and allow them to be routed to the right device?
Ok, fediverse, the fountain of endless knowledge, I have a burning question. Please enlighten me on how you interpret this claim.
"When you’re added in a group chat with someone, have you gained the implicit permission to post creepshots of the people in the chat if you happen to bump into them in your daily life?
Is this an universal rule or does it have some rules/limits on it?"
