Whatsapp, Telegram and Signal fill that place quite nicely.

I regularly check my Whatsapp contacts status messages. Most of them are filled with things from their daily lives.

I have a bunch of groups in Telegram, both personal and professional.

I feel FB style of "feed" thing has become a chore solely due to the mind-numbing complexity of the interface. WA is dead simple. I know what I am looking at, I can interact with the person who put the status message, I can block them or delete them or archive them.

SM has evolved itself into chat apps, which, funnily, was what we used FB for in the first place.

The likes of IG, TT, etc are a mixed broadcast medium, that are natural evolutions of the Twitter model.

Also, FB is finally evolving into a form that is close to how users use it.
