Yeah everyone uses WhatsApp when I travel to other countries.

WhatsApp (EU/LatAm), WeChat (China), Kakao Talk (Korea), Line (Japan/Taiwan) are the main ones I’ve encountered. I think Telegram is used more in Russosphere and Signal has a footing in some niche circles as well.

Sweden’s mostly on Meta Messenger. WhatsApp is the foreign exchange student protocol.

I use Beeper because I can’t stand all these fucking apps. Preferably everyone would switch to Signal but that won’t happen.
