Lost a bunch of contacts after ditching WhatsApp a few years back but eventually managed to get most of my valuable ones to use Signal.
Work-wise everyone uses WhatsApp, for example my team has a group chat that I am not a part of, so I am losing some info on that side.
When traveling I also get a lot of prompts to use WhatsApp for example two hotels we stayed at this year did concierge only via WhatsApp.

P.S. Shameless plugin for /m/Signal

Yes it does. That's literally what Ernest said and I even linked his statement on that in the post. It would behoove you to read it.

There are at least five apps that I know of currently in development for iOS. Unfortunately neither Memmy nor Mlem able to connect to kbin at the moment, something to do with the kbin-specific API from what @ernest, @BrooklynMan, and @gkd have said. Kmoon is specifically being developed for kbin and is multi-platform for iOS and Android (no TestFlight betas on that just yet):

Artemis (Kmoon): https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp
Memmy: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Mlem: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Morpha: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Thunder: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Lemur: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/58630/I-am-working-on-a-new-lemmy-app-for-iOS

P.S. I don't use Android but have seen Jerboa mentioned quite often: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
