I hate what has become of whatsapp

WhatsApp is now filled with businesses sending messages about things i really dont care about. I hate that it has become completely filled with bots.

Marking a bussiness account as spam doesn't really work, you just get the spam through another message.

It freaking blows my mind that people still like and use it?

If I wanted this much clutter I would have just used messages with RCS.

I wish hike would just cone back

I sincerely wish people would move to something else.

Keep blocking them whenever they ping. You'll be through most of them within one or two months.

I do, it's just annoying that I have to keep doing it. I should just be able to opt out of this content.

I realised that this is a problem with India, not WhatsApp per se. I have an old USA number that I have WhatsApp on, and an India number too. Only the India number gets hit with business spam.

That said, is WhatsApp the primary/default texting channel in USA?

I just block promotional communication whenever they send for the first time.

I do, but it's annoying. I should just be able to filter out real conversations. Like atleast let me add filters like in email.

Is Instagram worth it?

From the last two years, I am not using instagram. Sometime I use reddit or twitter but not that much.

Most of the people around me use insta.
