Yes plus a lot of these networks fail pretty hard... with Gtalk/Hangouts for example it's not rare to miss notifications because you got them on the laptop but not on your phone, or the opposite. Also Whatsapp stupidly doesn't provide a web or desktop interface. Skype on mobile devices uses way more power than it should. In the end I hate Facebook for a number of reasons but it's the only reliable solution I have found so far: fast, reliable, (nearly) everyone is there.

I don't know a single person who has a facebook account but not an email address. And even for those there is a build-in email bridge: https://www.facebook.com/help/224049364288051 https://www.facebook.com/help/224049364288051
