I quit whatsapp and managed to migrate all my contacts to signal, it was not easy. But then I was forced to rejoin as it was the de facto communication canal with my kid’s teacher and other parents. I however used a different phone number so that my other contacts would not use it to communicate with me.
Yeah, I had to un-quit Whatsapp when my siblings-in-law moved to Argentina - because Whatsapp is the main communication platform for a lot of Argentina and that’s where all the various family chats moved to once the in-laws no longer had local phone numbers or reliable SMS service.
