Apparently Europe finally got Whatsapp to enable 3rd party chats making it easier to switch to more privacy friendly alternatives article However the only other app that currently works with it is "BirdyChat"??

Have anybody found any news about when serious alternatives will be integrated?

It's definitely something I'll use, since work chat is all I do on WhatsApp currently.

I only need to be sure it isn't some scam, although the alternative is Meta, so... yeah...
