Apparently Europe finally got Whatsapp to enable 3rd party chats making it easier to switch to more privacy friendly alternatives article However the only other app that currently works with it is "BirdyChat"??

Have anybody found any news about when serious alternatives will be integrated?

I don't want to chat with people on WhatsApp with Signal. I don't want Meta linking my metadata. Interoperability will only keep people from switching to better platforms

    While I agree with your sentiment, no interoperability obviously hasn't made people switch to better platforms either. The only difference is that without interoperability, I'm forced to still use WhatsApp to communicate with those unwilling / unable to switch.
