Meta is breaking up the love between Instagram and Facebook Messenger chats
The tech giant pulls the plug on the cross-app chatting feature this month.
Lol why would they ever do that?
Meta hasn’t provided any clear reason as to why it’s now changing course three years later. However, it’s likely the reversal could be to avoid regulatory consequences of the EU’s Digital Markets Act, which aims to keep companies from holding monopoly power by favoring their own services. It also includes requirements for large companies to include compatibility between messaging platforms.
Meanwhile Matrix bridges are going strong as a way to keep in touch with people who refuse to leave these horrible platforms.
