Believe me, I would *love* to delete it, but all of my kids’ activities are run over WhatsApp groups. Here in Europe, Meta has successfully captured the niche of “minimum common denominator of messaging app”.

Ok. So 100% of your WhatsApp use is for that? And you don’t de what’s app for anything other than that?
😉🙃

I would understand that context but I’d also ask if they’d consider an open and free but more secure platform.
Did you ask? Did you raise it as an issue?
Change happens one step at a time.😉

99% is that, yes, or utility conversations via WhatsApp for Business, which has been enthusiastically adopted around here. I have Signal and Messages for most friendly conversation.
As for proposing alternatives, I do that 1:1, but I admit I have given up on moving 30+ member groups off what works.
