    moving an entire country’s (or even continent’s) population away from a messaging app has proven to be difficult.

    It’s not that difficult. During the pandemic there was a privacy scare when Whatsapp was rumored to plan on breaking encryption. There was an upsurge in Signal installations and I actually got a small group to use it for a few weeks before the scare died down and we returned to Whatsapp.

    If Meta really thinks people won’t switch it may have an unpleasant surprise.
