You are a very ignorant if you think there is no barrier to getting someone to try an app with a substantially less good UX than what someone's currently using, and that that barrier doesn't border impossible in a group of 10. I can't even get my wife to install Element - and she works in tech as a senior python / automation engineer. People want neatness on their phone and low total complexity, and installing a messenger for a single person is over the line for most. |

Yet many people do have multiple messaging apps.
And Discord the one you think is so popular is not even in the top 10…

They aren’t counting iMessage as a separate app. But do you really think it wouldn’t rank above Discord?

Maybe your enlightened millennial friends and family aren’t as willing to change as you think they are?

Yet the average person has 35 apps on their phone
