Discord, Telegram, SMS

I keep wanting to like Signal but the fact that they refuse to allow multi-device use kills it for me. I can go for days at a time never checking my phone, every app I use also delivers messages to my tablet.

Discord for friends, SMS for everyone else. Rather use something private but I can't convince people to care.

I just use SMS. I don't need to install anything extra or make some sort of extra account somewhere. Phone plans here have had unlimited texts for like over a decade now so we aren't spending extra money here to send texts either.

I can't get my slavic grannies and aunties off of Viber either 😂

Signal for anyone I could get on Signal.

But sms/RCS for random people I exchange numbers with.

Whatsapp because I can't get anyone to flip

Germany: Only aware of WhatsApp but I don't chat much...

Personally online: Discord

Discord and SMS.

Facebook Messenger. I'm from Australia (but currently living in the USA) and Facebook Messenger is by far the most common messaging app in Australia. MSN Messenger used to be #1, then it was briefly Google Talk after MSN shut down, and now it's been Messenger for a long time.

Viber. Brings back memories.

I mostly use Telegram/Signal/Discord, but Snapchat and Insta are very popular here in Canada

Mix of messenger, telegram, and SMS for me.

I do cybersecurity and programming, so, stereotypically, Discord. It's more widespread than Matrix, and it's natively and easily cross-platform unlike iMessage, SMS, Telegram, or Signal.

Signal

Mostly FB Messenger because I can't get my relatives to use anything else :/

estonia here: most people use Facebook messager, whatsapp, sms, viber, Skype and snapchat
