- theonlybutlet 5y agoWhatsapp isn't really Facebook and it is ubiquitious. I live in Europe and have lived in Africa, I only know of one person that doesn't have it and they're tinfoil hat level paranoid (following a privacy scare earlier this year).
- ubermonkey 5y agoWhatsapp really is Facebook. Facebook owns them, lock stock and barrel, so I'm not sure what you think the distinction is. I understand it's ubiquitous, but I don't personally use it, and can't imagine joining it. Nobody I know uses it, but I will absolutely allow as how that probably has to do with demographics -- my network of friends, family, and coworkers is overwhelmingly on iOS.
- pier25 5y agoI wasn't arguing which is better, just that it would be easy to switch to. Also, what should 90% of the world population that can't afford an iPhone do?
- ubermonkey 5y agoFind something that Facebook doesn't own? I mean, there ARE other options, right?
- pier25 5y agoThat are as easy and ubiquitous so that a grandmother can easily install and use?
- ubermonkey 5y ago...here we are back at iMessage. Weird!
