SUMMARY

  • The EU has identified WhatsApp as a gatekeeper in the messaging industry and has given it a few months to enable interoperability with other apps.
  • The EU’s Digital Markets Act aims to promote fair competition and give consumers more options for alternative services.
  • WhatsApp has already begun working on interoperability with other apps, potentially allowing smaller players like Signal to compete more fairly.

    I do, but I’m on a waitlist (and don’t want to selfhost) so I’ve not been able to try it out yet (I don’t make calls through WhatsApp, so I see the lack of support as a benefit).

      Message me and I’ll send you an invite link to skip the waitlist. I think it’s a thing I can do on the desktop app now
