Say you are using WhatsApp web… in first place, what the fuck!! whatsap web? where is the fucking native app?. Ok, you are using that crap.
But you have to have your phone connected to whatsapp in order for it to work!!! NO FUCKING KIDDING ME!! what is the point of having a web version already connected to the fucking service if you need to have your phone connected too.
Take for comparison another Instant messengers:
Telegram
- Free (Open Source and you can use the service for free)
- Mobile app (iOS, Android, Windows Phone)
- An API to create your own app/service
- Bots
- You can share pictures
- Voice messages
- Is quite similar to whatsapp, but..
- You can use either, the phone, the tablet or your desktop as long as you have internet in the device you are using. No need to have your phone connected.
- This thing does support GIFs!!!
- Unfortunately, you have to pay for the data usage in mobile since there is no agreement with carriers to give it for free (as with whatsapp)
Facebook Messenger
- Free (you can use it, althought there is no source code available).
- There is an App for most popular mobile devices (Android, iOS, Windows Phone?) and there is a web version (http://messenger.com) which you can quickly make a desktop webapp.
- Most of your contacts already use Facebook, so what’s the problem?
- You can share Pictures, video, Voice messages and other files.
- You can do Video calls.
- It does support GIFS.
- No need to have your phone connected to internet. You can use whatever device you have at hand.
- In Mexico most carriers give it for free as the mobile data usage in “social networks”.
I still wonder WHY THE FUCK PEOPLE STILL USES WHATSAPP!!!!! if it is because it’s free, then use Facebook messenger, it does support video calls and it’s free. Do you use it as a messaging replacement?, use Telegram!!
