I've noticed for my North American friends it's easy to convince them to move to Signal (from SMS or Messenger), but my European friends are all pretty entrenched in WhatsApp. On one hand WhatsApp is certainly more secure, but on the other we can't really trust a closed source implementation (and they'll still collect metadata which makes me uncomfortable).

I'm just glad I don't have to use SMS anymore honestly
