      Multiple Chats in one Group (“Communities”), Polls, Group Calls are the ones that come to mind now. I think I had more on my list… 🤔

        I don’t know if I understand the first one. But, good point on the other ones. Group calls would be really nice…

          In WhatsApp, you can create “Communities” these days. In a community you can create multiple Chats/Groups with their own topic. So when you have a big community and different topics to talk about, you can create a chat for each topic so that you don’t have one spammy chat. That way all chats belonging to that community also are visible to all people which are in at least one of the communities’ chats.

            Seems a lot like a Discord Guild. Very nice concept!

              Well, it’s basically multiple Chats in one Group, so yes, but without all the permission stuff and so on.

      No Android Tablet version. On iOS you can use your iPad, but can’t use a tablet alongside your phone.

        Huh, I haven’t tried that. I use Signal on an Android phone, ipad, Windows computer, and Linux computer. I just recently started using Beeper though. I like that it uses Matrix for its back end between other Beeper users. But, I can use it to talk to people on Signal, iMessage, SMS, etc.

        Well, tbh, WhatsApp also hasn’t had a Tablet version for the longest time. They are just now getting started with an Android Companion version.

          No, but I don’t use WhatsApp either. Telegram across multi devices works so well, I use that.

            But that’s a mess in terms of security. I love the telegram client and features as well, but that’s a strike for me.
