Not sure for you, but what makes WhatsApp the stickiest for me out of the chat apps is the statuses (stories). I start many of my conversations on WA by seeing someone's status (story). On Signal, Telegram, or even iMessage, there isn't that nudge to restart the conversation.
I think if those platforms made some story-like feature, I'd have an easier time leaving WhatsApp.
- marton78 6y agoThat's funny, I don't know anyone who uses that feature.
- jimkleiber 6y agoFascinating! Maybe it depends on the region...I have many friends in East Africa and they seem to use it all the time. This has inspired me to look more closely at which friends actually post and which ones view the statuses. Thanks!
- jcelerier 6y agoI have never ever seen anyone around me do a WhatsApp story
- jimkleiber 6y agoAs I mentioned in a different comment, maybe it depends on the region, with many of my friends who post being from East Africa. Would you mind sharing in which part of the world are most of your WhatsApp contacts living?

- jimkleiber 6y agoHaha that makes sense, too. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
