Yes but we do need more competitions right now.

I think this time we are just lucky. Still need to thanks to Telegram or Signal because if we do not have them, users would have no reasonable alternatives to move away and then could not give any pressure to Whatsapp at all.

Absolutely true @tryp4vps I'm unfamiliar with Signal, but I've heard amazing reviews about Telegram. While they are under their own management they should be OK, but look like the moment when something good is sold to a rogue shark like Zuckerman or Microsoft, then that app starts to deteriorate in the wrong direction.

I think WhatsApp will be OK for a while, while everyone is still panicking, but as soon as things get quiet I'm sure Zuckerman will start his moves again, and then hopefully I'll already be at an alternative like Telegram.
