Out of everything the most depressing is Klarna. It's a buy now pay later microloans that should just be forbidden.

"Wtf is TEMU?"
Oh...
Also, wtf is MA IMA?
Maxima Grupė UAB is a Lithuanian group of retail chain companies operating in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland and Bulgaria.
LT72 is a website intended to prepare Lithuanian residents for emergencies. It allows residents to learn how to be be prepared for an accident, ...
Wildberries (Russian: Вайлдберриз, Vayldberriz) is the largest Russian online retailer. It was founded in 2004 by Tatyana Kim.
All Recovery is an app to recover deleted or lost items from your Android's internal memory. All Recovery can recover photos, videos, audios and documents that have been previously deleted on the device.
Yeah, what's up with Latvia? Why would people mass-download a grocery store app? Besides, iki is better. At least it was 10 years ago. Do they still have iki?
That's depressing as fuck.
I know. Cheap crap is a stain.
Nice one Netherlands.
The Netherlands continues to be my top choice for a place to live if I end up fleeing my country. If they'll have me.
I'm sure a lot of us here can say that's the only one on the map we have
Surprised me though, although temu probably would've surprised me more
Wtf is klarna?
Swedish fintech for online payments. A lot of young people go into debts with their "shop now, buy later" function
Loving Bulgaria. Everybody's doing social networks, meanwhile they're "ooh, a puzzle game!"
Temu is more like a capitalism network than a social network, but yeah Chad Bulgaria playing tetris instead of giving into consumerism.
People really use temu? I thought it was all crap.
Edit:
This is most downloaded not most used, so I'd reckon a lot of people heard about it, downloaded it, used it, realised it was all crap, then deleted it.
People would rather download the app to figure that out than just visit the website? That's still depressing.
But probably temu was like get 50% off your first order via the app or something like that?
people like "saving" money
It is crap but everything in stores in the US is crap too, and Temu crap is merely half the quality for a tenth the price
everything in stores in the US is crap too
You might be going to the wrong stores
I don't think I see US in this map at all...
well personally, i cannot speak for the EU - have consumer goods turned to crap over there?
Only Netherland and Bulgaria can be proud of themselves.
Nobody can be as proud of themselves (because of this list I mean) as Lithuania: "LT72 is a website intended to prepare Lithuanian residents for emergencies. It allows residents to learn how to be be prepared for an accident, ..."
Offtopic but IMO "Netherland" would be a better English name than the fussy "The Netherlands". And Nederland would be better still. It's easily pronounceable.
Is Temu really that much cheaper compared to Aliexpress to be "worth it"?
They have better marketing
For me personally my phone downloaded it automatically because I apperently missed some checkmark or something. Instantly deleted it, but it still counts. Samsung btw.
I’m like “Wildberries and Tetris?” and that’s just tangential to wtf Temu.
Look at us go wheeee.
99% of people who use Temu are dumb. They don't stop to ask "everything is so cheap, but why?". Because they get blinded by convenience. And i HATE those people.
No love for Finland? Threads is kind of fun and at least it isn't selling you landfill fodder
They downloaded threads in hopes of browsing sopuli through threads, of course /s
I live in Finland and I know no one who uses Threads, or at least nobody has never mentioned it.
