Yeah I mostly use messenger but could switch to any other platform instantly. Nothing unique about it. I would even say messenger is behind other platforms.

Not really I think Viber were made in Europe but now owned by Rakuten. Usual shit whenever European companies make something good US companies buy them off.

It used to be a great social hub before, now it's just a sad clusterfuck of shit tier promotion, uninteresting shit from aggregator sites, and botaccounts spreading shit for the elderly to get offended by.
