Why do most people choose to use WhatsApp over telegram??

If you live in the EU, somewhere around in 2024, you will be able to use something like Signal to communicate with others that are on WhatsApp. So you don’t have to use WhatsApp at all to communicate with other WhatsApp users.

I’ve been looking for a messaging client that includes multiple services for ever. It’s still a dream of mine

I’m pretty sure that law is still in limbo, but I sure hope that will happen. I’m ditching WhatsApp the day I’m able to.

No it isn’t. They have to make it happen in 2024
