- tsimionescu 5y agoIn Romania at least, WhatsApp is the de facto standard. Just to give some idea of how ubiquitous it is, when I had to buy flowers for a funeral, the lady told me to send the message I wanted printed on WhatsApp, didn't even think to ask if I used it. By contrast, the only two people I ever saw using Telegram or Viber were a security researcher and a colleague from further East.
