Samsung is shutting down messages and pushing the use of Google’s messenger. Are there alternatives? I don’t want to give Google that much personal info to train its AI or to give the regime an avenue to getting my info.

    I would love to use JMP chat, but they only give a canadian or usa phone number. I guess that would be very expensive for others to call from europe, besides being very unusual

    I especially like that JMP seems to be a really honest provider, basing their services on privacy and open source software, which is so, so rare

      Do you often get charged per call by your carrier in Europe still? If so that’s really too bad. Most of the VoIP services I’m familiar with is NA only but I know others exist, you’ll just have to do your own vetting.
