Whatsapp. Everyone in India uses it. Its like the imessage situation in the US. So widespread.
Schools, college, friend groups, family groups all are on whatsapp.
Can second this for Germany, too.
I tried to degoogle and to only use FOSS apps and services, but ditching WhatsApp would throw me in a black hole.
I have ONE contact who uses Signal. Yes, it's a shame but at this point I think that I could convert more people to using Linux than to switching to Signal.
