I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn’t even say anything.

A: what’s your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don’t have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

And that was it. Life can be very easy sometimes

    I’m currently in a former USSR country on holiday and everything is WhatsApp and Telegram. Delivery drivers to government services.

    Japan is still on floppy disks attached to carrier pigeons.

    China is WhatsApp for every non Chinese even with the ban. Wechat for everything else but you need a Chinese mobile.

    Korea surprisingly is using WhatsApp more than even prepandemic. Almost all my Korean friends are now WhatsApp versus like 1 just 5 years ago. Telegram is also popping up there.

    But point taken. A few bubbles of differences but WhatsApp really does rule supreme.
