Signal and Threema want nothing to do with WhatsApp

That's a bummer. Means I have no alternative but to keep using WhatsApp then.
you're getting downvoted for not being American 💀
I've had this conversation before. The consensus last time was that I should tell every single person on my contacts list to download Signal if they want to stay in touch and if they refuse it means they're shitty people that don't care about me but I'm totally not a shitty person for forcing my preferences onto others.
People don't realize that in most of Europe WhatsApp is more popular than iMessages are in the US. Not having WhatsApp means you're not texting to anyone.
Yep. And it's not just a Europe thing. WhatsApp is basically the only messaging app in South Asia, West Asia, south America and a lot of parts in Africa. Telling someone to stop using WhatsApp here is like telling an American to stop using E-Mail ans SMS.
Well for me it works and I have most of my people on either Signal or threema though threema is getting slowly obsolete
Americans have something even worse: SMS
A huge amount of them, and the vast majority of younger people, have iMessage.
