Ah fair point. You could run WhatsApp in a work profile or on a second device, but you’d probably have to jump through some hoops with a second phone number.
Btw oficially, in my state, schools use their own forked version of ubuntu (KITE Ubuntu), spevifically designed for school use and has foss programs installed and syllabus teaches only that. But still, since the online class started in 2020, google meet, whatsapp and all of them are “required” by students. The problem is that none of the schools or teachers actually knows why “free software only” in schools were introduced

I hate using WhatsApp for university shit. Wish they just use Telegram or Teams
How are either of those better?
They’re Separate apps I don’t use for everyday communication. I can isolate them

Use signal for everyday communication, two problems solved.
They don’t give a fuck in first world schools as well
