Holy shit, three of the top five downloaded apps are within the Facebook ecosystem (Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram).

And further down you have Messenger and WhatsApp Business, also from Facebook (I refuse to call them Meta).

That’s really awful.

For good reason. Out of all the messenger apps I’ve tried - open source, decentralised, or stuff like whatsapp - Telegram is THE best one imo. Fast as hell, great UI/UX, lots of customisation, nice features, and good bot support.

I know some people dislike Telegram here, but among centralised apps their philosophy and track record is pretty decent imo
