Oh really? I have many colleagues in France and they're all on WA. What else do they use? Is there a local app? I know France loves their local things :)

- jkepler 4y agoThe French government adopted Matrix for all their internal and inter-ministerial communications, to avoid dependence on foreign corporate products. https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/matrix_french_state/ https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/matrix_french... Most people I know use WhatsApp (I refuse, and since I run Lineage OS without Google services I simply tell people my phone doesn't support it), Signal, or Telegram.
- herbst 4y agoI've just googlet that. Statistica and co show a number of 22% for France in WhatsApp usage. Reality is if you ask someone 'do you have whatsapp' or just message them a lot more than 22% will have WhatsApp in a way or another I guess. Buts it's not what they choose if someone asks which app they prefer. Just as nearly everyone I know has telegram but I highly doubt it's their main way of communicating for most.
