While WhatsApp plans to give newsletters a prominent place as another communication format besides chats and video calls, the viralization of what a young Spanish woman did has monopolized everyone’s comments on social networks.
The girl shared on her account Tick tock a video showing it created a whatsapp group between her and her three ex-boyfriends where she asks them what it was like to date her during the time they were a couple.
“I need to know the good and the bad about myself,” she said. “It’s like a personal process of introspection and self-awareness”, but the boys’ answer left her dumbfounded.
In her video, “Leti” shows the audios she sent to the group where she greets them and asks them to tell her the best about dating her and those traits of your personality Maybe he didn’t like it very much. This caused a stir among their followers, who asked them to upload the second part showing the boys answer.
“Hi guys, I’m creating this group to find out how your experience with me was,” he began by saying in the first audio. “I need it for my personal evolutionto know what he liked best and what he didn’t like being with me, ”he claimed. And total madness broke out.
“The day I created a WhatsApp group with all my exes,” he wrote in the first part of the anecdote he already has It has surpassed 1,200,000 views.
“What better idea than asking your ex what you need to improve about yourself. Moreover, I know that I am an extraordinary person and that they are very excited to talk to me again. A kiss, I love you and thank you very much for answering me, “she added.
And while hundreds of thousands of users begged Leti to show the answers of her ex-boyfriends, the young lady soon showed everything.
her exes are Paul, Leo and John, and not everyone liked the unusual idea. In Pablo’s case, he only limited himself to answering: “Leti please, don’t mess with me”. As for Juan, who was the one who took it rather ironically, he told him: “Since I’m the only fun guy in this group, I’ll answer: being with Leti is a rather strange experience because this girl she likes Disney more than her boyfriend. But the beauty is that he will never betray you, or maybe with Mickey Mouse ”.
For his part, Leo told him not to compare him “to those two fools” after Juan’s message joking about his relationship with Leti. The young woman showed a message that one of them sent her privately, although she did not name revealed: “If you’ve already moved on, I haven’t, so leave me alone.”
“I’m leaving this crazy group”, added Pablo, to which Leo joined with a “me too”. This second post has reached 1,500,000 views and more than 2,000 comments. There were all kinds of them: some laughed at the situation and some destroyed Leti for his narcissism and her outsized ego.
One user compared it to Shakira -“even she didn’t dare so much”- and others went after the gossip: “We need to know what happened to those who still don’t surpass you”, were some of the comments she received from people.
Newsletters on WhatsApp
The messaging platform would be in full development of a function that allows subscription to newsletters to its more than 2,100 million of users all over the world and without the need to exit the application.
According to the specialized messenger website, WaBetaInfo, which usually reveals new features before its release, in the source code of the latest version for developers (beta) a function to subscribe to this class of articles is hidden; although it is not yet available even for Beta users of the app.
Once this new feature reaches the stable version of the messaging service, users will have the ability to create newsletters to share information with those who subscribe directly within WhatsApp.
Indeed, according to the leak, it will be possible perform user searches within the app through the codenames or pseudonyms they choose and, in this way, they find different types of content and subscribe to it.
Apparently, these newsletters They will be located in the “States” tab. of WhatsApp, in their own category, and will appear in chronological order as they are published by their creators.
For now, it is unclear whether this type of content will have commercials nor any kind of monetization for creators. However, that may change once it’s finally incorporated into WhatsApp.
In this way, WhatsApp continues to develop more functions that complement it beyond a simple instant messaging application, such as its Chinese counterpart WeChat, which, among others, has messaging, social networks and even mobile payments.
What is a newsletter: WhatsApp’s next target
The messaging service, owned by Meta, has focused on this type of content which has been growing in popularity for the past couple of years.
The newsletter is a type of email that is sent regularly to a group of subscribers interested in receiving news and updates or promotions of a company, organization or individual. In general, they are used as a marketing tool. They can also contain informative articles, tips, recommendations and exclusive content that may be useful to the recipients.
Even the newsletters can be sent with different frequency for subscribers, be it weekly, biweekly or monthly.
In some cases, e.gcan be customized based on the recipient’s interests or behavior, which increases the effectiveness of the message.
While this type of news sharing format is booming on the Internet, at the same time it doesn’t seem to be growing enough in the social networking orbit either. Indeed, one of the last failed attempts It had Twitter as the protagonist.
In 2021, the blue bird social network launched its own newsletter platform, called Revue, which worked integrated into the platform. But in January of this yearunder the control of Elon Muskthey decided to close it due to low number of users.
