That’s fair.

I’ve assumed thus far that using it socially was more zeitgeist than substance, only to pass like the sourdough starter phase.

Among my friend group it’s hard to find a reason to use it over, say, ad hoc FaceTime calls. But I recognize that’s not a position everyone is in or wants to be in. And preferences vary.

You're in an extreme filter bubble. FaceTime doesn't work on Android, PC, Linux, or Chromebook.

Close to 50%[1][2][3] of smartphones in the US are Apple. A "bubble," perhaps, but nothing extreme about it.
