+s for:

GitHub (influence).

Reddit (despite spez, it has a handful more years).

YouTube (remaining video king).

Signal and Tiktok if apps are allowed.

I don't know anybody who uses Signal and isn't a programmer (on the cryptography/security side) or journalist that needs it in order to work. Anybody else uses Telegram, WhatsApp, or both. SMS if you're in the USA.

My family all use signal as to an compromise of one that I refuse to use WhatsApp.

Add WhatsApp to the list.
