I have started using privacy respecting software as much as I can for a while now. Particularly social media. I started with deleting my reddit account, and then one by one deleted twitter, instagram and all. The one thing I couldn’t leave was whatsapp. I just cannot seem to leave it. Not just friends and family, but outside too. My mentor just use whatsapp for all types of communication except for some absolutely formal documents, where he uses email. Otherwise he doesn’t seem to respond to email.

So, my question: If you have made the switch, have you convinced your peers to also make the switch?

    Government Departments are still using WhatsApp for their official communications to employees 🙂

        @astro_ray @kuroi

        grail?

        btw nic is ready to give it is the govt departments who are unable to cope up with them.

        Plus they need workspace too, in that case Microsoft is best, otherwise for localisation, zoho seems to be good

          grail?

          It was supposed to be gmail, but my stupid keyboard autocorrect replaced it with grail. I edited the comment, but it seems edits are not federated from piefed to mastodon.

          Plus they need workspace too

          I did not know that. Honestly I am not entirely sure what they need.
