As European, I don't know anyone that uses Signal.

Meta Messenger, Skype, Whatsapp, Viber and Telegram? Tons of them.

In Eastern Europe Signal is very popular.

As someone else in Eastern Europe, 99% of people I know communicate over Messenger, Instagram (if more hip), or Viber (if 40+). I believe that the messaging app situation varies a lot from one city to another or even one "group" to another.

Interesting, my contacts are mostly in Romania, Estonia, Latvia and Poland, and mostly IT savvy (as users, not programmers), so the latter could well be a factor.
