A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Ugh and I just got my dad to use it instead of SMS

(No he will not use Signal)

[–] KidDogDad@beehaw.org 11 points 1 year ago

Can I ask why he wouldn’t use Signal?

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Delete your WhatsApp, block your SMS and if he wants to talk with you, he will use Signal.

Not the method of a narcissist or manipulator at all, that.

Nope, just a method of someone who values his privacy. I've done this and I'm quite happy with the result. Sure, I've lost a person or two, but that's an acceptable price for not giving Meta data it does not need.
