SMS has issues if youre traveling a lot or want to send large files. Nobody has Signal and Im not going to ask someone I just met to install a new app.

Okay email?
They can only say no. And if they do, their loss.

Asking for someones email when they ask for your whatsapp is weird.
It would be nice if I didnt need a dozen chat apps,each with their own faults, but being able to communicate with friends and family is more important than software evangelizing.

Yes it is. But that’s not what I was suggesting.
I made the switch 6 months ago and can communicate just fine. Friends and family.
Its not evangelising, I’ve just chosen not to use WhatsApp, FB messenger etc. If other people want to surrender their personal data to Meta have at it.
