I won't disagree that it saw some significant usage, but I also agree with Tapatalk's point of view.
There are far better platforms for group chats that offer way more control & privacy (for reasons, you know). Sure, you'll need to use another app, but I don't think the transition would be that bad.
@IGOTACUMMINS could set up a WhatsApp, Kik, Wire, or even a FB Messenger group pretty easily.
