    This can’t be correct. No way people use Signal more than Whatsapp in NL. And Temu, this app Google Play tries to spam you with? Why?

      It is the most downloaded app in 2024

      I think most Dutchies already had Whatsapp installed prior to 2024.

        It’s not about cheap crap, it’s about the predatory nature of almost all apps shown and how well-known it is that they’re ethically bad.

      The Netherlands continues to be my top choice for a place to live if I end up fleeing my country. If they’ll have me.

        It’s expensive. Don’t forget to buy the floor for your apartment.

        Edit: I’m serious about the floor. Apartments don’t come with flooring included.

      can it though, or just claims to be able to? as I know no apps without root privileges cqn do such things. unless it just searches things in the gallery recycle bin, in which case it is again useless because the gallery app can be used for that

      Yeah, what’s up with Latvia? Why would people mass-download a grocery store app? Besides, iki is better. At least it was 10 years ago. Do they still have iki?

      We get a lot of advertising for it here in Belgium and tons of webshops support it, sadly. What a trash company.

        Not just support it but sometimes it’s the only option, so you also have to support their business even if you just paying upfront. (and hand over your personal data)

      You know, I mostly hear about how Soviet-looking Bulgaria still is from my family over that way. Everyone playing Tetris adds to that.

      Temu is more like a capitalism network than a social network, but yeah Chad Bulgaria playing tetris instead of giving into consumerism.

      This is most downloaded not most used, so I’d reckon a lot of people heard about it, downloaded it, used it, realised it was all crap, then deleted it.

        People would rather download the app to figure that out than just visit the website? That’s still depressing.

        But probably temu was like get 50% off your first order via the app or something like that?

      It is crap but everything in stores in the US is crap too, and Temu crap is merely half the quality for a tenth the price
