I don't know about you, but the tone of the original question come across very dismissively to me. OP isn't asking what they missed, why WhatsApp might be as good as Telegram. They've flat out declared the winner and are asking why nobody else is agreeing with them.
I can see your point, and agree with it for the most part. But they're still posting on Asklemmy implying it is a question or interest of reason. It also doesn't dismiss a person directly/specifically, nor is the tone insulting.
Seriously?
