I hate Facebook but realized I can’t uninstall the bloatware Messenger app from my phone since I actually need it for Facebook Marketplace (I usually use it for selling second-hand stuff and looking for other products/services). Also I have plenty of friends there and it might be good to reconnect with some without dealing with the spyware Meta shit.
Also something for WhatsApp would be good as well

I have a WA client app running in an Android Emulator that runs for 10 minutes once a week.
It’s only needed because WhatsApp wants you to use an official client, otherwise they invalidate any attached sessions.
It’s not needed for any actual technical reason.
Can you please please please publish a guide on how to set this up and automate it?
There are already guides written by the authors of the bridges.
Link please? I’ve been looking but never found something like this.
