My sister was angered when I quit whatsapp (and facebook), asking me reasons why and if it was because I didn't like her. Told her I like my privacy. Haven't heard of her and a lot of other family since who only like to communicate through social media. Good.
I like SMS and Signal, only people that care for me are using that because I asked them to.
Yeah, I am from Amsterdam, left 20 years ago and can't recognize the city I left then. It is overrun with entitled tourist and braindead drunk Brits. Glad I live in the country side of the Netherlands now.
