Apparently Europe finally got Whatsapp to enable 3rd party chats making it easier to switch to more privacy friendly alternatives article However the only other app that currently works with it is “BirdyChat”??

Have anybody found any news about when serious alternatives will be integrated?

No they dont, and it’s a public modified Matrix-protocol. Why would you lie about that?

Sry i read it on reddit lol…

but so will there be a matrix client i can use soon? or not

because i also read that signal wont do it

Signal wont do it because they cant use their own protocol. You still have to use WhatsApps, which makes it flawed.

I also hope for good clients, but maybe the rules will change further before there’s any real use case for it. Maybe it’s too expensive compared to making your own?
