WhatsApp is ubiquitous in Ireland, if only it was as easy to get away from it. Everything from clubs, schools, kids sport is done via group chats on WhatsApp. Absolutely hate Meta as a company, WhatsApp is the only app I use of theirs and only because they bought it from under us. If we could get proper interoperability, we could use a non WhatsApp app, but it’s not looking good so far.

So it looks like the problems are on the WhatsApp side. The EU should force them to get the finger out and come up with a proper solution.

Interesting point. Does that mean iPhones and Android can now have a shared group over imessage/whatever it’s called in Android? Are those messages encrypted?

Signal is great. Think I read that WhatsApp will be forced to allow interoperability with other apps. Would be great if you could use Signal to access chats that started on WhatsApp. Fuck Zuckerberg. Whatsapp the only Meta app I use and only because the bastards bought it

Watching the IT crowd for the 1st time with the wife. So, so funny.

As soon as they’re forced to allow interoperability with other apps, I’ll be deleting WhatsApp. Had a Facebook from the beginning but deleted it when the Cambridge Analytica scandal happened. Have never had an Instagram. Fuck Meta and its horrible owner.

Watched it a few years ago for the 1st time, gas. Ye get fairly attached to the lads.

Thank fuck I deleted my Facebook when I did (around the time of the Cambrige Analytica scandal). Never had an Instagram.

For anyone reading, delete them all. Load of shite, you won’t miss them.

This type of stuff will get a whole lot worse before it gets better.

Haven’t stopped but I watch very little TV, whether on terrestrial or Internet. Listen to way more music and radio these days.

Problematic for who, the tech companies? They’re practically printing money. Let them spend it on actual solutions to issues that are causing problems for the World.

I don’t get it 👀

Actually yeah, forgot about having to do that on my 1st ID4.

Short answer no. I now have two in my house. VW ID4 & ID3. So nice to drive, cheap to run and the maintenance costs are basically 0.

I can’t wait to see what he does when he loses.

Google and other companies are being covered by it, as they are headquartered in Ireland for their EU activity. So what’s dumb about that? And what are you on about sensoring? Did you even read the article?

I’ve read your sentence multiple times and I’ve no idea what it means.

Wow, I’d forgotten about that. Didn’t he try to burn it in the end 🤢
