Elige Messenger si...

Messenger is a popular choice due to its widespread use and Facebook integration, making it nearly essential for those deeply embedded in the Meta ecosystem. However, those valuing stability, speed, and minimal storage usage might find alternatives like Signal more appealing, especially considering the recurring performance issues reported by many users.

However, the aggressive ad monetization along with occasional technical issues make it a mixed bag. Users willing to tolerate ads might find value in its features, but others should consider alternatives.
