        I don’t really know anyone that uses them. Myself and friends/family just use WhatsApp for everything. Haven’t used FaceTime for many years now

        Whenever I see articles about iMessage/RCS/SMS I see all the comments about how it’s a really American thing and how people in other countries use WhatsApp/others

        I was going to ask the same. I didn’t know anyone outside the US used iMessage.

      Yes, many people in the UK use iMessage. It’s not as popular as WhatsApp, but it is used.

      Facebook Messenger is also popular here, particularly among older people.

      Yes. I’ve got a handful of UK friends who use iMessage/FaceTime pretty heavily. WhatsApp is the other one some of them use.
