Calm down, all of you! I know that a lot of you hate Facebook, whatsapp, Snapchat and Co. And yes, WhatsApp's new status feature complete bullshit and just shows how anti competitive Facebook can be. But who cares? Don't use the feature if you do not like it. Texting didn't change in any way. Ignore the feature. There is probably other software out there that added stuff and you disliked. Did it make you stop using them? Probably not. You just ignored those. Deal with it :D and stop fucking ranting about it. Reading the same shit all over again after waking up. Frustrating as hell!

Meh...I choose to think that ignorance is bliss sometimes . I only noticed the change in UI , didn't even look at the status thing until I saw it on devRant , I was like...meh , not gonna ever use this... And so went my day and use of WhatsApp without giving a shit about their 'new' functionalities . I use it for texting with a couple people and that's it . WhatsApp isn't a way of life that suddenly took a sway , it's just another app . No new feature in an app should cause outrage unless with its coming a core feature of the app was removed and thus rendering it useless for a certain group .

@adracea removing the status feature makes it useless for some people? I might be wrong, but people that depended on that feature have probably other alternatives like Instagram and what do I know. Because that sounds like they just want the world to know how awesome they are. And I might be totally wrong, but that's how it sounds to me at least.

@SirWindfield what I meant to say is that they didn't remove anything , they just added something that can easily be ignored .
