The problem is that he doesn’t seem to understand that there are cultural differences at play between Chinese users and western users that prevent mass-adoption of a single app to do everything in the west, and that WeChat already exists and isn’t popular in the west at all.
Not really. There’s something called Firefox available and it’s published by Mozilla, but Mozilla has to deal with Apple’s restrictions on web browsers by using the webkit rendering engine and Apple’s proprietary plugin system. So it’s not real Firefox.
