Google Talk Is Being Discontinued
and meanwhile I use for communication email, SMS and Skype longer than these Google products, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Viber and Wechat exist<p>only thing I have added is Signal because why not have one more messenger if it's bundled with SMS anyway<p>when living in China was forced to use Wechat but got rid off that spyware immediately after moving outside, them had short stint with Facebook Messenger (Lite) until I decided it's not worth to do any business with Facebook which is reason why I don't have WhatsApp<p>I think I provide enough options for people to reach me with email, SMS, Skype (video/chat), Signal (video/chat)<p>so in the end i have 4 apps in phone covering all my communication - AOSP Email, AOSP Dialer, Skype Lite and Signal
