@TheMadnessKing @floppy in Europe for most people iMessage is just the SMS app. Even though it pisses me off that Apple got away with it, having WhatsApp to comply with this is just huge. Everyone here uses WhatsApp, and now I won’t be forced to leave Signal anymore.
@el_bhm @floppy you americans are making a fool of yourselves in these threads, there are tons of comments about whatsapp being old or only for drug dealers & sex workers, and it’s so funny how out of touch with the world outside of your borders y’all are. In basically any other place of the world; universal messengers like WhatsApp, Telegram, or WeChat are the de facto standard.
