I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

For whatsapp, my experience with Pidgin was terrible. Stickers had to be downloaded as photos, group chats would only show up once someone sent a message, contacts would only show as the full international phone number, all existing chats were horizontal tabs, like a browser.

Yup indeed, it wasn't a pleasant experience. Self-hosting Matrix with all its bridges is kinda nice tho (although a bit lacking).
