I'm one of the morons who convinced my friends and family to switch to Allo. I'm gonna sit this one out.

Me and my ex thought Hangouts was going to be discontinued so we switched to Allo, and then back to Hangouts lmfao

Too true haha, I have a few contacts on Signal and Telegram but I blew my shot and I can't blame the rest of my contacts for now wanting to switch again.

This is also me. After Allo's demise, I moved everyone to WhatsApp. Aside from being a Mera product now, it was a good choice.
