Yogesh: Today Facebook created a dummy parent company called "Meta" and brought their other apps under it. No doubt as a defense against calls for "breaking the company up".In light of this, today is a very auspicious day for beginning our liberation from these nightmare apps. Better alternatives exist for social media and communications that respect us as human beings. I got rid of my Facebook account years ago and my Whatsapp months ago and I can say with confidence that my mental health has improved greatly.If we still need these apps for something or the other, let's at least not play by their rules: not giving out real names or contact information, not using their apps for private communication, and not letting them suck us into their click-holes by using defensive applications/add-ons.Some alternatives:1.
