… is it possible to do any kind of business and/or have regular conversations without having to use whatsapp as a main way of communication?

If you’d like you can say in what country you’re living.

Checking in from Australia: absolutely you can. In fact, using WhatsApp for anything other than talking with family/friends is weird. I’m in one WhatsApp group for my team at work (that I never even check) and that’s it. I’ve never seen a single business with a WhatsApp account.

It’s been very interesting travelling through India and Europe though as it’s become almost ubiquitous it seems.
