in reply to Brodie Robertson

Looking forward to this one with @thelinuxcast, it'll be an interesting conversation I am sure. @BrodieOnLinux can i give an additional shoutout to you? Tech over Tea has great guests, and it shows the best of how diverse all these geekos, that make our hobby or work possible, really are. Hats off! Both: keep on rocking! Much appreciated 👍🏻


This song is a brilliant pick-me-up!

🇬🇧Consumer-hostile #Whatsapp messenger will soon be interoperable - we #Pirates ensured this via the #DMA. In the coming months, we will be able to switch to better and open messenger services such as Matrix and continue to communicate with our consenting Whatsapp contacts securely and end-to-end encrypted across platforms using the Signal protocol. Wired reports: wired.com/story/whatsapp-inter…

Facebook Messenger will also become interoperable, possibly iMessage too.
Anonymous use of the participating alternative messenger services remains possible, and Whatsapp only receives data on messages sent across platforms.

Even if Threema and Signal want to stay on the sidelines at first, I am confident that more and more messenger services will join in over time, because interoperability is the future and brings real competition and real freedom of choice!
