"It's a bloated piece of crap"

Ah. Well. I don't know what makes it "bloated". I runs very smooth on my underpowered android phone. Yes, Facebook is blocked in China but apps like WhatsUp work. I use very little WhatsUp and I think WeChat is far superior.

" of buttons called apps that do specialized things in a better and more simplified manner than WeChat can."

Not sure about this. I can text, call, send pictures end even money very easily. To use a different app and possible in each app every person has an additional ID (hence email, phone number, bank account number etc) would make things very inconvenient.

WeChat? Loving it.
