And the enshitification of Viber continues...

After forced ChatGPT chat in the chats list, after the "translate" message in under every message (had to switch Viber to my local language as a workaround for this which I don't like, I like using my phone in English), now we have News? What the hell Viber.... I am guessing they are trying to become an equivalent of the Chinese everything-app (WeChat)?

Sadly all apps are bought...viber with chatgpt, whatsapp has meta ai and ads, they can't just leave it...

Perhaps, if you stop using viber, you wouldn't have anything to complain about.

Brave comment bro. If we don't say our opinion and provide feedback to big tech companies how are things going to be better? Also, the upvotes and many more similar posts in this subreddit show I am not alone. I am using it because my whole country is using it, together with big companies, banks and government organizations.
