Whatsapp is overwhelmingly popular, no? I'd guess much more so than Oculus.

And anecdotally, IG users seem to feel very positively about it in a way that isn't true for fb or Twitter users. Most of the handwringing about IG that I've seen comes from commentators

IG is popular among its users and doesn't have the same image as FB has but it also has been in news for reports on body dysmorphia, depression etc

You are right about WhatsApp though, it aslo largely has a very positive image till now

Yea, but the IG complaints are more of a moral panic than anything else, and don't come from any of the actual users. Though you're right that that feeds into the overall brand.
