This isn’t an ad, I wasn’t paid for this post. Just to clear the air: fuck facebook, fuck elon musk and twitter, fuck anyone who thinks this is a paid advertisement. I wish I was paid for this shit, I just wanted to spread the word. Thank you. 😀 👍
It always baffles me that apparently in some places people still use sms. I mean besides the fact that it isn’t encrypted at all, sms doesn’t even give you group chats, the ability to send images and videos or many other of features basically every other messenger has, right? Where I live it’s about (just guessing the numbers here tbh) 90 % WhatsApp, 7% telegram and 3 % signal. Is there any reason that in some places so many people stay with SMS? I don’t think I’ve send or received one in the last 10 years or so (besides companies sending me a TAN or whatever)
I’ve never used group chats, so that was never an issue. Most people don’t care if their messages are encrypted. And sms automatically swaps to mms when sending pictures and videos.
Donno why Whatsapp never took off on the U.S and tbh I’m glad since Meta owns it.
