We all just tend to use SMS or regular phone calls here.

???? I'm an Aussie, I haven't sent an SMS for well over a decade, aside from a Y when confirming medical appointments I guess :) , a few received SMS for 2FA or signing up to services. I only use Signal. Most seem to use Apple's bullshit though.

My gfs work is all organised via Whatsapp though.

That said WA and Tele and FB are ubiquitous in SE Asia, LINE App and Viber to a lesser extent.
