Meta 的產品就是奇葩,真的太垃圾了啊!還搞上地域歧視了?事情就是這樣,WhatsApp 上的 Meta AI 真的一言難盡,明明 Llama 模型的中文水平還不錯,非要屏蔽中文,當我用中文傳送訊息給 AI 的時候,AI 雖然會說中文但馬上就被系統屏蔽!你這是什麼意思?其它語言則不會,明明 Llama 的中文水平不錯,也沒什麼問題,非要故意屏蔽,見鬼去吧,不只是 WhatsApp,在 Instagram 等 Meta 的 app 上的 AI 都是會這樣!真的讓人氣死,而且 WhatsApp 上的 Meta AI 都有點 bug(在影片中能明顯的看得出來),要不是身邊人都用 WhatsApp,我也不想用這狗屁東西 💩 Meta 的產品真沒一個是好的,我個人認為真的全是垃圾,這就是為什麼我比較偏向開源,雖說還是會用閉源的東西但還是比較偏向開源的

For my White Town band chat, I'm thinking of bunging #phpBB up on my own webspace. At the minute we have a #WhatsApp group but obviously that's yet another Meta product. I think running a lil forum just for the six people in the band will be cool!
Mast Geeks - is this a good or bad idea?
Have you got a better replacement for WhatsApp that isn't #Signal or #Telegram?
Geen #Facebook, geen #Instagram, geen #Threads, geen #Twitter/X, geen #Bluesky, geen #Tumblr, geen #TikTok, geen #Snapchat, geen #Pinterest, geen #Redit en alleen #Linkedin en #Mastodon.
En zonder #Google kom je met een Android telefoon niet ver dus helaas die nog even aanhouden.
Helaas nog wel #WhatsApp en daar vanaf gaan is erg lastig. Is mijn ervaring een aantal jaar geleden. Kom maar naar #Signal, zeg ik vaak.
What will happen when I leave Meta?
I wrote down my thoughts about leaving Meta and it's platforms from my perspective as a wedding photography (and it feels great to start writing again!):

I've seen a lot of people talking about leaving #WhatsApp. Great!
Only, don't replace one WhatsApp with another.
#Signal and #Threema are centralized services, and just as vulnerable to #enshittification as Twitter or WA.
Instead, use a platform that's standardized and federated - #XMPP, a.k.a. #Jabber.
The easiest way to use it is to install #Quicksy from the Play Store, App Store, or F-Droid.
Or check out my XMPP guide for more options -

#PSA: I deleted all the #Meta/ #Facebook apps. Have you tried #Signal? It is co-founded and initially funded by Brian Acton, a co-founder of #WhatsApp. [1] Signal is better than WhatsApp in every possible way. @signalapp also has impermanent usernames for when you don't want to give out your number. Does audio/video/group chats as well.

Meta is collecting your #WhatsApp metadata 👉 Protect your communications with these European alternatives to WhatsApp!
WhatsApp shares:
✅ Your location
✅ Your device
✅ Who you're writing
✅ When you write them
✅ How often you write them
✅ Whether they reply
Are you already using one of these #PrivateMessengers?🔒
"Your #privacy is our priority. With that message has #WhatsApp last week sent all its users a message" (translated from Dutch from an article in De Telegraaf, a large newspaper in the Netherlands)
There is too much gossip about WhatsApp according topman Will Cathcart.
"#Signal is very cool: the number of new subscriptions in the Netherlands is this year 25 times as high as before"
WhatsApp is closed source. Do you trust #Meta? Signal is #opensource.

We would like to endorse what @kuketzblog writes about the inclusion of an “AI assistant” into an instant messenger that is still widely used:
It is unfortunate that many journalists do not realise how dangerous the new AI in WhatsApp really is. Der Spiegel, for example, writes in a recent article: “Meta AI does not have access to users' private chats, however, thanks to end-to-end encryption.” As a matter of fact, the AI does have access as it is used in the context of private chats or group chats. Sadly, this misinformation lulls users into a false sense of security. 🤦

New: #DeAppleification project 🍏
Good hardware, if overpriced ✔️
Bad software & services, deliberately lacking #interoperability ❌
Today, I shut off Apple's closed #iMessage service entirely. Now using #Beeper as a universal inbox, with #Signal, #WhatsApp & #Slack DMs ✅
Goal: shutting off all 🍏 services will make it much easier to switch to cheaper hardware in future. Which is why Apple’s entire business model depends on tying their hardware to their software & services

[a very well-written article with a favorable yet realistic angle on the #Fediverse]
"At the heart of these alternative apps lies the Fediverse platform — a portmanteau of "federated" and "universe" that represents a radical reimagining of how social media can work. Unlike traditional platforms where users are locked into isolated ecosystems, the Fediverse operates as an interconnected network of independent servers that communicate with each other through a standard protocol called #ActivityPub."

Now even more arguments to other people to make them switch messenger apps.

Does anyone here have information about the status of Matrix-WhatsApp bridging/interoperability? (Maybe @matrix?) 🤔
Ads coming to WhatsApp is making me much more frustrated than I already was. I haven’t been updating the app since the introduction of Meta AI, but now WhatsApp is demanding that I update within 15 days or I won’t be able to use the app anymore.
So, the time has come: I have two weeks to backup and quit WhatsApp for good.
Since I’m here: could I also ask for your advice for local-only, not cloud, software that can backup ALL my #WhatsApp chats and store them locally in a browsable format/database? I found out about WhatsApp-Chat-Chat-Exporter but I’d like to learn more before testing it out.
Boosts welcome, let’s help each other and resist the broligarchy together! ✨
Damn, we wouldn’t have all this trouble if only the #DMA was actually enforced 🤬

A Fase 1 da operación #SairDeWhatsapp rematada.
Despois de instalar #signalapp conseguín que o primeiro círculo familiar a puxera nos seus teléfonos e fixemos un grupo.
Agora imos á Fase 2 , comezar a utilizalo por defecto e conseguir que neste verán o seguinte círculo de familia e amighos poñan #signal nos seus teléfonos.
Logo virá a Fase 3 que é o definitivo adeus a #whatsapp e agardo que sexa para finais de Setembro.
Boas noites, boa sorte !!
Hice un vídeo para que puedas enviárselo a tus personas cercanas, explicando lo fácil que es dejar #WhatsApp, y por qué es importante hacerlo. 💬
