It's not that surprising. If you live in the US and don't need to text people in other countries, you probably can avoid WhatsApp pretty easily, but it's pretty much the defacto option for texting non-US family and friends, and in many countries it's the predominant form of mass communication.
- JshWright 6y agoI communicate with a number of non-US folks routinely, and have still never needed WhatsApp. They're all in Europe though, so perhaps that's why.
