As a westerner, WeChat was one of the coolest apps I encountered living in China.

That said, we should probably consider all of these platforms harmful. I've migrated (and been pressuring my connections to migrate) to Telegram.org

But Telegram is still based on another proprietary, centralized server. I don't see how this solves anyone's problems.
