    It’s a simple concept.

    You need at least 2 people to form a conversation.

    One of them has Whatsapp, Telegram, signal, MSTeams, smoke signals and those flags that ships used to communicate.

    The other only has Whatsapp.

    They are going to communicate over Whatsapp.

    Even if the dude with 1000 communication methods meets another dude with 1000 communication methods, they are going to use WhatsApp, because they are used to using Whatsapp with everyone, so it’s just easier to have everyone on WhatsApp.

        Of course the random dude I replied to on Lemmy owns a set of semaphore flags. What else would I expect?
