I'm in the states, I know loads of people using whatsapp. I'm in several group chats.
I've literally never met anyone that even knows what it is, although I thought it would be obvious just based on how people talk that I was speaking anecdotally and not from literal statistics. I come across Facebook messenger somewhat commonly but never Whatsapp.
it's a lose lose regardless lmao
congrats you're an outlier I suppose. I've only met maybe 5 people that know what Whatsapp is. telegram is marginally more popular but only because a lot of drug dealers use it (they would have better luck with matrix or even signal)
I'm surprised with the reactions to this. The only people I use whatsapp with are all outside the US. It's discord/telegram/sms for everyone in the US and it's miserable.
