Probably referring to group chats and sharing media.
My point is you need to put your foot down and say “I won’t use WhatsApp. If you want that functionality with me, we can use Signal, but otherwise SMS.”
WhatsApp really doesn’t have any features that aren’t also in Signal, but Signal isn’t owned by Facebook and was never a vector for zero-click access to your device (NSO’s Pegasus toolkit used WhatsApp calls to get at Android phones, this was involved with Saudi Arabia’s execution of Jamal Khashoggi). WhatsApp is simply not trustworthy, and a massive security risk.
