@mattburgess the rules make sense, but I suspect most don’t use WhatsApp for good reasons. Those same reasons wouldn’t persuade me to go anywhere near it, even if interoperability is possible.

Imagine the our-way-or-the-highway agreement Meta would expect other apps to sign.

I am torn on this

On the one side, i personally dont want to touch the Facebook and its brothers

On the other side, it would be AMAZING! if i could for the first time be able to write with all the "normal" people who have just Whatsapp and nothing else

Its the pain of sitting alone at home all the weekends for all the years, beeing cut off from any fun meetup and events, because the people who make it are never (or non longer) using Mastodon-XMPP-Matrix etc

WhatsApp is basically required in some countries (like Germany) for social interaction/work/school. It has become synonymous with texting here.
