Wandering if it’s just me or something system wide
I had issues with a couple apps on mine (specifically on a non-AT and non-ActivityPub protocol), so I just deleted them off of my phone. Something had changed, and I’m a bit ticked.
I’m on GrapheneOS and only enable network permissions for WhatsApp once a fortnight to keep my Matrix bridge alive. I’ve not noticed any issues the last time it was enabled.
There was a major AWS outage that affected WhatsApp on the server-side for most of Monday (2025-10-20). Could that have been it?
why are you using spyware??
Network effect. In a lot of places it’s kind of the default messaging platform for any kind of social interaction.
In my country it is like this, but I said ‘fuck it’ and deleted it anyway. If someone wants anything, they know where they can find me.
Not working how?
Updated it two weeks ago through Aurora, and ever since I cannot send messages, and every message I receive is shown as “waiting for this message”. Deleted the app, downloaded the official apk from the website, and it still doesn’t work. So I feel it might be something with the OS?
