Messaging app Telegram added 5m new users the day after WhatsApp outage

People is too dependent on these messaging systems so they rather install two apps to prevent outages.

Google should be doing massive Hangouts marketing to try to get some users but they remain silent after being defeated.

HO is subpar and has lots of syncronization problems between devices. They add features nobody wants (sms integration) and ignore requests (appear disconnected, status messages).
