      My brother lives in another country and WhatsApp is the platform that pretty much everyone he knows uses for free international communications

          Ahhh yes, let me just get all of my brothers’ business’ account’s followers to switch to telegram. I’m sure they’ll all be willing…

          “Just use something else, duh!” is ignorant. Not everyone uses social media to just post memes and argue with strangers. Some people use it for making money, or for access to support resources, or for a specific community that is important to their well-being.

      My entire family uses Facebook Messenger. I like having communication with my family.
