Even in USA nobody ever SMS me. Messenger and insta are primary with WhatsApp and signal sometimes being relevant and wechat for the Chinese community.

Crazy, most people use SMS with Messenger as the go to for big groups for me (in USA). No one I know uses WhatsApp

Seems weird to me to use an unencrypted ancient format

I’m just giving anecdotal evidence, just like you gave 🤷‍♂️ I’m not promoting one way of communicating vs another.

Unencrypted is not the thing that bothers me - after all, Telegram is so popular, so not like most people even care. What bothers me is that you still need to pay for each one! You have to edit the texts to fit into a tiny arbitrary character restriction or else you’s be charged for a second message! Why is data do relatively cheap, but those messages are still overpriced?

It’s the same for me in Australia. Millenials and older use Messenger or SMS while Gen Z and younger use Instagram or Snapchat.
