What a surprise when i discovered that you don’t seem to need to backup Whatsapp messages any more. They apper to be stored on Meta servers. I’m sure it was not like this in the past? My wife left her GrapheneOS phone on the roof of the car and drove off. I managed to recover it but it had been ridden over by i car. So boight another pixel and installed Whatsapp again. She can’t live without it as all her clients are on there. When i setup Whatsapp on new phone, all messages appered again, just like that. Spooky … I think in the past it wasn’t like that?
The inappropriate jokes that filled my head as I read the title of this post are innumerable.
Also, f*ck Meta.
Edit: is setting up a separate work phone/clients only phone and a private life only phone on the table? :)
Of course these are all options that i will slowly have to convince her are needed.
