Weird that this is your association as using it would require an iPhone which most youth don’t have. My thought was Telegram, which is omnipresent at least around me, with Whatsapp often being kept just for the parents or older relatives.
I know, and it’s terrible that it’s so unavoidable. I managed to avoid Whatsapp, but without Telegram managing university life would be incredibly hard.
WhatsApp? The instant messenger boomers use on their phones?
Damn, who saw that coming.
In most of Europe WhatsApp is synonymous with text messaging.
Also in South Asia and the Middle East.

american, right? It’s very popular in other places.
Most countries stopped using SMS ages ago. WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram are ubiquitous.
I WISH signal was ubiquitous. Half of my friends are still using Facebook Messenger so I still have to resort to using SMS for them
SMS for everybody not on a self-hostable encrypted messenger. Why fool oneself into thinking a US managed messenger is private?
