Just a thought.
They already made Lite versions of Facebook and Instagram.
And a lot of the new functions (stories, screen share, and the avatar emojis) only come as bloat for users like me.
So i think they should make an official app that came without those “features”, having a priority on simplicity and data saving.
They discontinued the messager Lite not that long ago so I seriously doubt that will ever happen, luckily I don’t use Whatsapp I guess but most people sadly more or less have to!
You’re right, they should make a Lite version. There is a version that could be said to be Lite, but it is only for a system called KaiOS.
I am still stunned that ages after Mozilla dropped their Firefox web OS stuff the third biggest phone OS (Kai) is still based on it’s remainings!
Well, Firefox was born out of Netscape’s remains so… history repeats itself.
There was a time when Mozilla was serious about competing rather than just surviving and it makes me a little sad that they droped basically all of that, Google still pays them a ton of money so it’s basically just greed that got them here! :(
Unfortunately, I think they’re moving in the other direction. They just discontinued Messenger Lite, which I used. I think now that people in India and other countries have more powerful phones, they feel less urge to keep the Lite versions available
But Messenger Lite never made sense because Facebook Lite already had messaging support.
Many use the messager to stay in contact with people even if they don’t use facebook itself much, especially on phones so it absolutely did if you ask me!
