> but at some point I realized that 1B users have as much say in what technologies we should use than developers, it's not all about the tech. Whatsapp has gained the trust from billions of users, ignoring them and telling them we know better because we have been indoctrinated by recruiting evangelists of an extremist ideology is not the way forward.
Cab you envision systemic reasons that lead to Whatsapp's users using the software without trusting Meta?
I get my internet through Comcast or AT&T. I certainly don't trust either.
- burnt-resistor 1y agoAre there no municipal or co-op ISPs in your area? GVEC here, started by farmers to get electricity where there was none, is awesome and still largely a co-op. 1 Gbps fibre of similar quality to GFiber for $89/month (vs 70) in almost the middle of nowhere. 2.5 and 5 exist too, but are pricier.
