Meta pushed a WhatsApp update that replaces the soccer ball ⚽ with the FIFA corruption cup soccer ball by Adidas
⚽ is also an Adidas World Cup match ball.
The difference is that the design was streamlined and iconic enough to be timeless and become the football design in public mind.
Before the Telstar footballs looked like this:
Wow, I had no idea! I just looked through the list of World Cup balls, and they only used that design, like, twice. But what an impact! I assume they had to get fancy afterwards because every ball started to look like that, so now it looked almost boring. Wild!
WhatsApp is a Meta company. They are doing worse than pushing emoji on you
Why are you using meta WhatsApp? The fuck?
To communicate with people who aren't tech nerds, i.e. majority of the population.
I switched off an my parents, grandparents and siblings all switched to signal with me.
I'm not saying everyone can or will, but it may be easier that we think.
I did the same. Took a while but the whole family was on board.
Now on to convince multiple circles of friends and every new person I meet...
In many parts of the world Whatsapp is the dominate communication platform. My landlord sends me my utility bills through WhatsApp, as is my doctor's scheduling platform, and my vet's contact info, etc. It's basically impossible to do things without it.
Probably because "Network effect". Many places whatsapp is basically the texting app and you are fucking forced to use it
Why would anyone use WhatsApp when there’s Signal?
Because most of the world is already on WhatsApp, and changing to Signal would isolate you from most people and businesses.
changing to Signal would isolate you from most people and businesses.
Sounds great - if I wasn't already using Signal, that just might persuade me 😁
So what? Don't support fascism.
The only people that believe I'm worth contacting have already switched to Signal and the ones that refused to switch lost contact with me. Their loss I guess.
I could move to Signal, open up a chat with myself and chat for a while but I think it would get pretty boring pretty soon.
I thought people on here of all places would understand the impact of the network effect.
Because in my country historically the telecom companies are charging 0.30€ per SMS (text) and 2€ per MMS (text with photo).
So WhatsApp when they launched with their "1€/lifetime" offer on the iPhone 3GS they were the right app at the right time and became the de facto replacement for any kind of messaging. It's insane how basically overnight they replaced msn messenger and Skype because it was so convenient (Microsoft never did a smartphone client for msn messenger, only unofficial ones. It was available on dumbphones but it used SMS from the plan to send/receive, nobody used it because you needed to be a millionaire to afford it)
SMS now in my country is only for receiving OTP codes, for the rest is WhatsApp, because still in 2026 the telecoms are still charging 2€ for each MMS sent and nobody wants to risk huge bills. This includes iMessage because if a chat suddenly goes green and you didn't notice, it costs dozens of euro
How is that shit different from Discord shitty server exclusive emojis. This crap is so... exhausting
You got advertising in my data scraping app!
Dammmmn, that's an ugly ball. Let's call it the Curseball Games insted.
(Fun thing: The football you usually see in emojis is also based on an official World Cup ball, but at least that one's a classic for a reason. Looks distinctive. Looks cool. Can't say the same for most of the recent ones, it's all a blur to me!)
Well there's your problem. You're using messenger and emojis.
Man, until I read the text, I thought this was about these old 45 record inserts.
It's about a hunnert billionaires banding together...c'mon we can take 'em all down! Let's Robin Hood all those motherfuckers!
