What’s here ? I’m French and I think 90% iPhone users use it. For what I see, Whatsapp here is more, of an app dedicated to family groups and travelling abroad

EU. They took a look at the market position in EU and came to the conclusion that it could be excluded from the legislation because it held such a little position. WhatsApp and Messenger are massive compared to iMessage.

That’s because no one uses shitty apple phones in Europe. Sure the few retards use iMessage as well, you’re right.

Considering that Android and iPhone have 65% and 34% respectively market share in France, iMessage being used 24% overall sounds about right. But you can’t disregard how massive Messenger and WhatsApp are.
