I still recall that during one of your platform classes we discussed about this super app and ecosystem thing and what I feel that WhatsApp tried to be bossy at the same time while it was trying to be good for everyone. their statement and elon's tweet made signal`s stock high and millions of downloads for signal will make sure that they will improve and correct their mistakes. unlike we chat they cant be the ecosystem as they failed where it was needed. so lets see what this brings for them but right now we have to see their apology messages everywhere be it in news or in our WhatsApp stories.

thanks a lot for this sir.

Very informative piece sir! A huge chaos among people due to WhatsApp privacy issues and everytime due to some privacy issue Facebook get trolled but according to one survey report lockdown phase increased the thickness of Instagram among all other platforms. May be new options will come but power of this Siamese triplet will continue. Now Reliance going to embed Jio-mart into WhatsApp in six months, this will a good deal for both of them in term of thickness.

Mahabharata and platforms have always intrigued me and thus made a deep bond with my thinking and being... I am thrilled to know that Dharmakshetra is there on Netflix now.. have been a huge fan of it ever since it aired on Epic channel...

Indeed when you add more to just black and white, is when you add the the mystery element to anything.

On their way of improvising themselves as super apps, Facebook and Jio have taught us how adding more than just one element on your platform can make you a big deal...
