All my international coworkers when I travel ask me to use WhatsApp. It saves them money and makes it easy to connect to others. Anyone in this thread shitting on it has either never traveled internationally or is just an asshole.
I am the asshole.
I refuse to install that goddamn app.
When I'm in Europe and people want to catch up, I'm the one forcing them to open their email. Or to actually dial the phone.
Or uses signal, the better version
I don't know why people think that that's some kind of argument.
The better version is the version that people use. WhatsApp is the better version because that's the version everyone uses
No one is shitting on the app, I'm shitting on the language used, go read what I wrote again.
Or if you prefer
No one is Totoing on the app, I'm American Standarding on the language used, go read what I Gboarded again.
I wasn't replying directly to you and was replying to someone else, adding support to what they said. Context matters, but I can see why you could take what I said out of context.
Personally I will use whatever app as a verb if it suits the moment or conversation at hand. Language can be fluid and doesn't always have to conform to a strict set of rules - see slang used in any language globally.
