Not a fan. Almost everyone I know has stopped using Snapchat. Its servers are god-awful - don't work 50% of the time here and people have got tired of seeing friends' sushi pictures & selfies 24/7.

Also, choosing not to support Windows Phone (and apparantly not even recording WP users' requests) is a really stupid move in my opinion.

Furthermore, I see no reason why Snapchat should be preferred over Facebook Messenger. If you want to share a moment with a friend, you might as well share it for more than 10 seconds. Messenger always works reliably for me. Snapchat doesn't. Case closed.

Also, Facebook itself, not taking into account its Messenger, is dying out - 90% of the newsfeed is covered with posts from sites like The Verge or any other sites that you follow. The actual amount of stuff that you care about is 2% of it all. Can't honestly remember someone posting a legitimately interesting status update. Instead, I see selfies and news.
