    @WhatsApp Your desktop application on Windows is not even capable of sending a proper notification when someone sends a new message. If you don't know how to fix it grant me access for God's sake I will fix it for you!!!

    @WhatsApp The fact that @WABetaInfo is here trying to explain and justify the “features” WhatsApp is rolling out says it all... Trust is broken, they can put all the effort they wants, people won’t trust them anymore.

    @WABetaInfo @WhatsApp Whatsapp really waste. They are not focusing multi device login. Telegram or signal moving ahead. Staff and whatsapp heads are sleeping. Dont disturb them.

  • james_gao3 James Gao (@james_gao3) reported

    Use end to end encrypted messaging service Signal or Telegram. Far more superior than @WhatsApp. @signalapp should be better as it's fully open source.

  • AzjadKhattak AyKay² (@AzjadKhattak) reported

    @Info_sec3989 @signalapp @WhatsApp How can't people understand that it's a mom-profit! They couldn't care less if people returned to whatsapp, or how many users they have. They're just trying to help the cause... apart from that they don't care if people want to give up privacy because of things like wp an stories

    @WhatsApp This is NOT the issue. The issue is monitoring our private online activity to make a profit. Stop announcing red herrings. If you roll out the changes in May, migration to other platforms WILL happen.
