I sent everyone a message, roughly "hey I'm moving away from Meta products. From now on you can contact me through SMS or Signal." All the important ones followed me to Signal, not all, but enough. The rest are using SMS or calling, some have stopped contacting completely. Which is sad, sure. But I look at it as they don't think I'm important enough for them to spend 30 seconds installing Signal or using a SMS that is already available for them. So I assume they don't like me very much, which is fine. I don't think about them too much either.
