That kind of pattern can be observed in many technical domains: Not the

This might be an opportunity to mention Delta Chat. It can send emails,
or instant messages via delta chat's servers. So if you want an instant
message user interface but the ability to communicate with people not on
delta chat too, you can use their email address. The usual objection is
that email is not instant, but then neither are instant messages in my
experience because people don't reply instantly.
 
Available on android, ios, FireOS, Linux, MacOS, Windows, f-droid.

Thanks for sharing the information and your opinion. Another exciting
alternative to WhatsApp.
