   Now that Zuckerberg has blown the Trumpet, @sylv_a has suggested date to tell our friends to switch from WhatsApp to Signal. With cool graphics.

   (thanks @sylv_a)

     @paezha @sylv_a @BradRubenstein : what worked ? Not being on Whatsapp.

     I had kept Whatsapp for long because of the "non-switchers". I refused to accept some new terms and, at some point, my whatsapp account was automatically cancelled.

     The closest persons in my life that were not on Signal at that time switched in the next weeks.

     Of course, not everyone. But I’m free.

     That’s the only solution : you have to pay the price to your own freedom.

     I switched to Signal months ago, but convincing friends and family has been a challenge.

     Do you have success stories of persuasion? What worked?
