As an example, you’re having a good conversation but have to part, and the other person goes, “Oh btw are you on [social media/messaging app/whatever]?”
I think I already know what the common answer may be, but I’m curious to see how wrong I might be.
Meta Messenger for younger people, WhatsApp for older people.
Insta where I’m from, which is fine, unless you don’t have an account like me 🤷♂️

Whatsapp whenever I’m traveling.
I usually ask the people I dont know much if they’re on simplex. The rest i usually ask to add me on signal. Massive groups I interact with are usually on discord but I move to simplex if they want a one on one discussion with me
WhatsApp is the go-to thing around here
Facebook Messenger. I hate Facebook but I had to create an account so I can communicate with my coworkers.
In Thailand it’s 100% Line.
Sales people for both buying a house and a car wanted to exchange Line info. They were baffled both that I didn’t have line and that I would want to exchange phone numbers.
Someone at work was upset that I didn’t respond to their G Chat. 🤨
That’s one of Google’s many attempts at a chat service, right? If so, can’t blame ya for being mildly confused…I can never keep up with which of those are still running.
Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, LinkedIn
None. A Phone number and email is more than enough.
Messengers I’m not on, like Kik.
Do you mind me asking what kind of group/situation you are in where you’d be using Kik?
I used it before I had a cellphone and my coworker uses it to cheat on his wife but I haven’t heard of many other people using it.
It seems to be used by people who cheat, want to be discreet and maybe practice scams.
AIM/ICQ. Hello from the nineties.
