wasnt whatsapp built on 2000s technology (in fact much older, Erlang)? The 2010s were a net negative to technology, it's big corps sucking up everything to their "cloud" monopolies, and the deterioration is very visible in lots of older products (whatsapp would now need 4000 growth hackers and a gazillion dollars in AWS credits to boot). AI is keeping the hopes up though
