        But what is the alternative to Whatsapp? As Europeans, we would have to set a switchover date, for example 1 January 2026, when we all switch from Wahtsapp to Signal or whatever. That would set an example and you wouldn’t have the problem of 2 people using Whatsapp, 3 using Threema and the rest using something else… Whatsapp is only still so big because almost everyone has it…
