I agree to a point. The barrier is something I miss sometimes. Because people will be asking something, and then start spamming question marks after 5 minutes.

If you're on a pre-paid plan then SMS doesn't just cost money. It's actually a finite amount you can send before you need to up it. Whereas Whatsapp can function on WiFi. So that can be a big deal if you have urgency. > I don't like non-regulated foreign companies looking over my shoulder I mean sure. You have to trust Facebook that the end-to-end encryption has no backdoors. But SMS is known for being intercepted really easyily.
