I don't really know anyone that uses Whatsapp in Finland. Most of my friends use Telegram these days.
- savolai 7y agoI live in Helsinki. Literally everyone +1. I don't know anyone preferring telegram.
- asutekku 7y agoLiterally everyone outside of tech bubble. In the university i’m affiliated with and the companies i’ve worked with, only IT people use Telegram. Everyone else still defaults to whatsapp.
- skinkestek 7y agoAnother datapoint, from Norway: Everyone of my closest friends use Telegram. I share a number of groups with 300-400 people (family, extended family, organizations I belong to/contribute to etc). Last time I got a message on WhatsApp was from an ex-colleague 2 years ago or something. With my new phone I didn't even bother installing it. That said: none of my current colleagues (in tech) uses Telegram or WhatsApp for that matter.
- anoncake 7y agoGood for you but the problem still exists for other people.
- stjohnswarts 7y agoTelegram has been criticized over and over for home grown encryption by people I consider experts so I skip it and stick with Signal.
