@Varyk Ad blocking on the mobile internet. I haven't seen an ad on my smartphone for years now.
Btw other life changing apps if you don't know them are NewPipe from F-Droid and Fennec+uBlockOrigin also via F-Droid. No more ads on the smartphone.

@Varyk Fennec is the browser. It's Firefox Mobile with some proprietary stuff removed.
@Varyk Hm maybe using a private DNS works, but no way to be sure: https://mullvad.net/en/help/dns-over-https-and-dns-over-tls/
@gravitas_deficiency This is true. That's why I run a private XMPP server in my home for me and my family.

@CaptainAniki WhatsApp is unlikely to adopt Matrix, a very expensive protocol that does not scale well and which fundamental ideas blow up pretty badly: https://telegra.ph/why-not-matrix-08-07
Whatever chat protocol they decide to implement will instantly have a 2B user boost. They use the IETF Internet Standard XMPP internally, so this would be the obvious choice.
@CaptainAniki It doesn't matter if you give a shit or not, Matrix will become obsolete if the big providers decide to adopt something else for interoperability.
@CaptainAniki @iturnedintoanewt It obsoletes Matrix.
