In Europe everyone uses WhatsApp and I‘d rather use iMessage than sell my soul to meta…
(Which I am. And Signal and Telegram. Only using WhatsApp for work)
Unfortunately, I don’t trust Apple either. I think Telegram or Signal might be a good option, but then again. They are just a CEO away from it being shitty.
I wish there was a better solution that is OSS but it won’t catch on.
I think they sell the perception of privacy. They might not sell your data, but they certainly use that data to sell to you. They only care about profits and any privacy that you think you might have is just a byproduct of that greed.
Apple is an optics company and damn good at it too.

I trust them a bit more than meta or google. Meta‘s main business model is selling data/ads. Apple’s main business model is selling hardware.
