I think the idea is migrate from a simple messaging app to a hub of social functionalities, like WeChat in China. And this is one more step in this way. I prefer smaller apps and focused in one and only one functionality but with the capability of integrate with other apps more like an ecosystem
Honestly I think Fediverse + IPFS + Matrix + Email all rolled into one app and you could have a pretty powerful “everything app” with a huge amount of features, but none of the lock in (so users that don’t use the app aren’t excluded and vice versa).
I personally don’t use it, but I know it’s popular. Besides for use in news ticker kind of systems(this was the last I used an RSS, it was super cool though tbh), how do people actually use them?

This would be the dream. But as it is now Whatsapp is fully controlled by Facebook so hell naw
don’t forget RSS.
