> WhatsApp will never go anywhere, it's entrenched. They're big enough to copy novel new social media ideas quickly. Whilst it hasn’t yet exploded in user growth, I’d disagree with this. Signal and telegram and others have outmaneuvered WhatsApp on features several times now (eg signal had gifs and emoji reactions, not sure if whatsapp even does yet?) Once you get over the network effect hurdle (no small feat), the switch is frictionless.
