For those unfamiliar with the network effect, I'm referring roughly to this (from Wikipedia):

Network effects are typically positive feedback systems, resulting in users deriving more and more value from a product as more users join the same network.

For more private platforms like whatsapp or discord: no idea. Better technology maybe? Discord replaced mumble for that reason.
