The achievement, announced in an official blog post, indicates a potential shift in the American messaging landscape, where WhatsApp has steadily gained ground despite the longstanding popularity of Apple’s iMessage. The Meta-owned messaging app is extremely popular in Europe owing to its cross-platform compatibility.

    I can’t believe how hard Nextdoor royally fucked up their ability to be communication for a local block.

    My “neighborhood” feed is basically rage posts from senior citizens across my 1.6 million person county. I never ever see posts or comments from the people within my 2 to 4 block radius.

      Yeah to be fair my neighborhood’s whatsapp group is still better than nextdoor because it really is contained to the neighborhood only, and so far no karens. Chats are mostly about people giving away extra food, reporting pets that have gotten loose and seen roaming around, and my favorite: everyone united on complaining about the HOA and working together to get those brought up to the board.
