EU is pushing for interoperability of messengers apps, so there is a potential of disruption in this area. I am not saying that Whatsapp is toast, I just assume if interoperability is implemented, some companies would be highly motivated to bite into Meta's user base, right when Meta would have to think about some unsexy Whatsapp monetization.

It's baffling that Google and apple between them don't run messaging. Almost all of the messages are sent from their devices.

Them not getting together to just fix this issue universally is stupid. Apple is naturally secretive (and profit from status-quo) and non cooperative and google is just a bunch unplanned running around.
