Nice. There’s just a FOSS alternative for almost everything these days. I get 80% of my apps from F-Droid.
The only non foss apps that I use are banking apps and whatsapp (forced to use it…). Everything else is foss.

Look at Beeper as a alternative, let’s you bridge your WhatsApp chats.

The only way you should trust anything bridging is if you self host it.
Matrix with WhatsApp bridge is the only way to properly use that.

Absolutely, make sure to self host the bridge yourself on your own hardware!
