Of course I am not unbiased, I am a person with my own political leanings, like all of us. What I posted was my opinion, that's why it's called a "comment". It's not an article or a paper. But I'm not going to believe for a single second something like "fullfact" is neutral, the same way Snopes isn't, it doesn't matter to me where they get their money from. Those organisations aren't created and funded just for their love of truth and kindness.
I am afraid I don't know much about call quality as I don't make calls through WA, but WA has always worked well on devices with low specs, and adding more features will only make it worse, not better.

Money is very important to people who don't have much money. If you are a plumber whose wages are going down and down because the market is being flooded with cheaper Eastern Europeans, you know who to blame. Of course I don't expect HN users who are sitting on a pile of money in SF or London to ever understand this.
A better product? I don't like most of the things they've added, like statuses, stickers, or invite links.
It looks like the same thing Mozilla did to Brendan Eich, fired after being caught donating to a conservative movement, so this is hardly a first.
Really, you make $300,000 a year and report no taxes and you think you're not doing something illegal?
