Here in the Netherlands, WhatsApp has the defacto communication tool. Everyone is expected to have it installed, not just by friends but also municipals and companies. Same level as having an e-mail address. It's a missed opportunity for the digital soverignty the EU says it so badly needs. The code for a government backed WhatsApp competitor is there, in multiple instances even. Launch a WhatsApp clone and put all g…

Eurocrats could never in a million years make it happen. For starters, every country would insist on having its own ChatsApp, with roll out taking years.

Hard to keep up with lots of sites. At least provide a common interface, like an atom feed.

Are you supposed to keep up with lots of sites? Which ones would you want to keep up with?

Government, municipalities, bank, large corporations, the list is endless. A curated RSS feed would work, but someone would have to do the curating.
