    That’s great news! I let all my contacts switch to other messengers if they want to stay in touch.

      I bailed to signal the day after Facebook bought whatsapp. No regrets and nothing lost :)

      Hope you have more luck, Viber is extremely annoying with their notifications and ads and almost everyone here still uses it. Can’t get away from it but at least it’s not whatsapp I guess…

        It was, but they were delaying the free period. Right before it was bought I remember they started to stop extending them, so some users had to pay. I know some people that paid, it wasn’t much money.

          I remember, maybe 13+ years ago you’d pay like 90 cts a year to use it after a free year. But it hasnt cost money in a long time.

      Nah, it was always free. Never paid anything on my personal no and WhatsApp always gave extension.
