Don't generalise all of Europe without checking the statistics.

Messenger is the most popular chat app in France, Scandinavia and most of Eastern Europe. WhatsApp has the rest. Except Viber in Serbia and Belarus.

(Messenger is Facebook Messenger, everyone who has a Facebook account has it, though not necessarily in use on their phone.)

If you admit that WhatsApp is the dominant messaging app in the whole Europe except for a hand-full of countries, and still in spite of your admission you still try to pass Messenger as ubiquitous in Europe, you shouldn't be talking about generalizations.

I didn't "admit" anything, and I didn't claim Messenger was ubiquitous.
