alt Hacker NewsWe don't want an insane experience, it's an HOA group. That's all I use WhatsApp for.
Also, I despise telegram (just as much as X), because in Germany both are rotten to the core in terms of user base, worse than WhatsApp.
Signal or Threema would be great, and I voted for Signal, but the majority uses WhatsApp.
I used to use Telegram, but ever since Covid and the whackos that found their "truth" over there I say no thank you.
You don't use an IM service, because a subset of its users are "wackos"? I've used Telegram for many years now, and aside from the occasional "hot singles in your area" type spam, I've never been bothered by anyone.
