The achievement, announced in an official blog post, indicates a potential shift in the American messaging landscape, where WhatsApp has steadily gained ground despite the longstanding popularity of Apple's iMessage. The Meta-owned messaging app is extremely popular in Europe owing to its cross-platform compatibility.

I simply uninstalled WA. I have signal, threema and as a sort of compromise towards the average users I also have a Foss telegram client. If the wa users dont also have either of these, tough shit. Send me a text then I guess

I'd love to but the consequence would just be that I'm missing even more from family, club etc.

WA completely replaced SMS here from the very beginning. There were phone providers with subs where WA traffic was free when flatrates weren't common.
