You can’t compare us to WhatsApp: WeChat

WeChat South Africa has said there isn’t a comparison to be made between it and WhatsApp.

That's true... WhatsApp has users, WeChat has... WeNothing.

WeChat is nothing but a dirty pervy platform where randoms try hit on you. That's been my experience anyways. Actually its not too bad...

Telegram is awesome. Our neighbourhood watch switched over to Telegram from Whatsapp because of the limit on the number of people you can have in a Whatsapp group.

What an idiot. Obviously two instant messengers can be compared.

If WeChat wasn't a money-grabbing spammy load of crap it would probably be quite popular. But Telegram filled that role and is becoming the go-to alternative to Whatsapp.
