"Given the WeChat app version outside of China was already limited in functionality compared to the version inside China, from a pure tech perspective, it won't be an immense loss," Forrester senior analyst Jessica Liu told Business Insider. "However, for people using it to connect with friends globally and, specifically, within China, they will need to find another messaging app that can traverse China's firewall.
"For sure I'm going to lose all my childhood friends, high school friends, and college friends because we almost only use WeChat in China," Wang said. "I cannot force everyone to use different apps. I will find another app to communicate with my parents, but no way I will be able to communicate with other friends."
She says for many Chinese immigrant students, they have trouble fitting in and speaking English, but also adapting to American apps like Facebook since they've never used it. On WeChat, there's a translation function that allows her to receive updates about her father and communicate with her stepmom, who speaks Chinese and doesn't know English.
"My biggest question right now is how am I supposed to talk to my family," Gaines said. "I know there are other apps out there but this one has been the top app for a reason. It is the most functional, easiest for us to use. Again the translation feature has been key. While there are other apps, it's not quite the same.
it talks like people in China had no other way to communicate with people outside before WeChat was introduced by a CCP state own company... 🙄 CCP's GFW should be blamed....
