We have been tied up by WeChat
Take a look#
Start with compliments#
It is undeniable that the emergence of WeChat by Tencent is indeed a huge progress in instant messaging software No, actually everyone knows that some of WeChat's features are not original, but thanks to the birth of WeChat, familiar social interactions have entered our sight. Blah blah blah, I'm too lazy to continue.
Various groups#
In my opinion, WeChat is not an appropriate platform for sending notifications for several reasons:
- Lack of member permission management
- Only one group notification can be accommodated at a time
- Messages cannot be synchronized across platforms
- Messages are not backed up in the cloud
- Message formatting is almost non-existent
Firstly, the severe lack of member permission management in groups means that it is not possible to mute members in WeChat groups.
Moreover, it is obvious that group members are a group of people who are prone to ignoring mute commands.
As a result, the mute function, which is clearly displayed in the group name, is practically nonexistent, and notifications and flooding messages often cannot be conveniently viewed.
Furthermore, group announcements in WeChat are hidden in the menu of WeChat group details, and the content displayed in the conversation area only differs from other regular chat content by the addition of @all without obvious distinction.
Not to mention that WeChat is proud of not saving chat records, so it cannot achieve cloud backup of chat data. Tencent should know whether or not the chat records are saved, which means that WeChat's chat records are actually unreliable.
Various public accounts that require attention#
Speaking of public accounts that Communist Youth League members are required to follow, it actually feels a bit excessive. From the beginning with the Guangdong Communist Youth League to Guangdong Youth Voice and then to Guangdong Student Union, it's too troublesome to be a member of the Communist Youth League. While it is understandable to follow a public account for notification purposes, it is forcing people to follow three public accounts, which is a bit excessive.
WeChat's closed nature#
It is undeniable that WeChat's ecosystem is leading in the industry, but for someone like me who values freedom, WeChat's ecosystem is a form of closure from another perspective. From WeChat chats to leisure reading on public accounts to WeChat Pay, there is a sense of consistency in the experience. However, once traffic enters through WeChat's gateway, there is almost no way for it to re-enter the free internet. WeChat is like an island on the internet, seemingly connected to the rich content of the internet, but in reality, you are always trapped in WeChat's cage.
WeChat has truly become a way of life#
Finally, I really didn't expect that someone would send me a text message asking me to check WeChat...
WeChat is like a rope, first tying up a group of people, and then letting that group of people tie up another group.
