Meta has made themselves appear to be “indispensable” for a their own profit, and our demise. Nearly everyone I’ve ever talked to about leaving Meta has said the same thing, “I can’t leave because all my friends / business/ etc are on Meta.” We’re at a breaking point, and it may never be as easy to leave as it is today. Have you heard of Signal? For me it’s just a coincidence, but I was unable to access whatsapp, and so ended up using Signal. And have been encouraging others to use it as well, for nearly as long as Signal has been available.
I bit the bullet and jumped ship. It was hard deleting my account with all the friends and family following me, but I realized that FB isn’t a worthwhile substitute for real relationships. In fact I think it was detrimental to my personal life. People are also get very fake on those services.
Leave ALL Meta products behind.
Leaving whatsapp is neigh on impossible in someone countries, unfortunately.

I’m using signal in parallel, 20-30 people are on there vs. 200+ on whatsapp.
I’ve encouraged a few, but not enough for a full switch.
