I tried but failed, people are so reliant on it that I couldn’t interest people enough and gradually even some people who moved over, drifted back.

Happy that worked for you but doing so would have cut a huge social part of my life away, its more than just 1:1 messaging stuff.

They can but that instantly excludes me from casual day to day things like my family group chat or more spur of the moment messaging - plans here heavily favour data these days over texts - honestly the only texts i get these days are automated services. I just have no desire to be so isolated from friends and family

Without whatsapp I would essentially be losing contact with my family and a ton of friends and colleagues. And some businesses even use it. Do I want to, no. Have I got some people on signal, yes. But there simply isnt a way for me to cut it out of my life unfortunately.

I love all dutch swearing, as a microbiologist there is something particularly satisfying being able to tell somebody to ‘krijg de tyfus’ or to call somebody a ‘pleurislijer’

At least with kindle books bought from amazon you have to use their own software to transfer. They stopped the old app working which could download books to your computer so now they just have to check if the kindle it is connecting to is attached to your account and on a software version they support.

I love revanced so much…

I still have my Corsa C! Only about 50k miles but its still going strong.

Pretty sure its my Neopets, I set it up in my dad’s office before we even got internet at home

My mother thought the lyrics to Roberta Flack’s version of Killing Me Softly With His Song was “Strumming my face with his fingers” (not strumming my pain).
