Not using Whatsapp is basically shutting yourself out of the conversation with family and friends, at least with me. It's not really an option. Vyber, signal, fb messenger, Instagram, it's easy to go without those, but Whatsapp has become one of those social backbones of society. I absolutely hate the fact it's owned by meta, but there is simply no getting around it afaik. It's a pretty brilliant app to use too, so that helps. At least it doesn't suck.
