I kinda feel like all dumb phones have to do is ship with an Signal client, the lack of WhatsApp was apparently the driving reason why the reporter went back and I think its more reasonable to expect friends to move to Signal than to SMS. (Its also really unsecure)
There are a couple of community made clients I wonder how hard it is to implement the signal protocol.
Signal is American too though
True, but it’s not owned by privacy enemy and trump slave Zuckerberg, or a similar big tech bro
To be fair, I recently discovered RCS messages. Very cool. I’ve been using those quite a bit recently and with many people I do not need Whatsapp anymore.
You can’t use RCS without Google, though.
Can’t use WhatsApp without Meta. What’s your point?
The point is not relying on US tech. It’s in the title.
The person went back to the smartphone in order to use WhatsApp. I feel RCS is a better option as it doesn’t strictly need Google, the reason why it is google is that google has developed the only application which supports RCS.
