This is not true at all, at least for Czechia. The number is going down but it's still in billions (for a country with population of ~10.5M). Quoting from the official annual report:
> In the number of SMS messages sent from mobile networks in 2018, CTU estimates - in the context of the increasing popularity of OTT messengers (e.g., WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Viber, etc.) - a slight decrease relative to 2017, approximately by 2% to 8.21 billion SMS messages.
