Yup. Facebook is the only choice. Twitter is the only choice. Whatsapp is the only choice. There are not much company that can overthrown them. When there were Messenger and Skype, just only two of them. We have only Windows and MacOs, while linux and unix are beaten down to to server and niche industrial market.

In Android, we have only google play store. In China, they have many app store and game store. Now they have iOS, Android and Harmony OS to balance the market share.
