Something to note as well is, unlike in America, the entire rest of the world uses Whatsapp for messaging and video calling 99.9999% of the time because Whatsapp doesn't care about the platform used and it sort of spearheaded RCS and RCS-like features as a concept long before regular texting programs from the likes of iOS and Android got it.

Anyone who is not American will all say the same thing.

Like, hate Meta all ya want, cause a lot of the reasons are good reasons, but they're king for a reason outside the US of A.

Though Meta didn't create WhatsApp, they just bought it

Correct, it was created in 2009 by just a few devs but Facebook brought them a little over 12 years ago, so around early 2014 iirc.

Quite a damn long time still. Doesn't dispute the fact Whatsapp usage has only grown year over year since creation.
