Based Netherlands.
Probably true. TEMU is personally also my most downloaded app. I've downloaded TEMU 3 time this year. Never opened it. Always uninstalled it immediately.
It installs automatically on some Samsung phones. I think it's after system updates. The Samsung store will pop up and recommend some apps. It then installs TEMU regardless of what you choose.
This is a Temu ad
Netherlands it is then.
So the source page just doesn't exist. But https://mapsinterlude.wordpress.com/ does. When you visit it, this post is easily found, but do they list any of their sources? No. I checked a few sites that list top apps by country and just checked Denmark, because that's where I'm from and temu was #8.
I took it from instagram, it's probably not correct. If you confirm that this information is incorrect, I can delete the post so as not to spread misinformation.
No, no it's fine, I wasn't trying to dismiss the posting of this, it's just that I'm sad I couldn't find any sources. I found a bit odd that Temu was #1 where I live, and although it's up there, I'm still curious how they got their data.
Maybe from this site: https://www.businessofapps.com/data/most-popular-apps/
You can buy reports too.
I couldn't find one with the whole Europe (free), but Italy is still wrong in the image tho.
All places I find seem to point at this source tho https://appmagic.rocks/
Like this page that you would think had their own data: https://www.statista.com/statistics/698982/leading-android-apps-in-norway-by-downloads/
They could also just have looked up news articles for all the countries. Crunch that data haha
That's depressing as fuck.
I know. Cheap crap is a stain.
We're so cooked.
Is TikTok just extra popular in failing countries?
I mean, if everything if falling apart around you and know you can't do shit then a bit of escapism looks pretty tempting.
I'm reminded of something I read during the US ban, "nobody can afford bread and they're banning the circus."
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.
If they'll have me.
Not with the current political climate I'm afraid. Still hoping for a shift to the left, as our right wing parties just showed they are completely incompetent. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst though.
It's expensive. Don't forget to buy the floor for your apartment.
Edit: I'm serious about the floor. Apartments don't come with flooring included.

Kosovo out here just trying to avoid speed traps.
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.

Damn, I didn't know the Netherlands were cool like that.
This can't be correct. No way people use Signal more than Whatsapp in NL. And Temu, this app Google Play tries to spam you with? Why?
And Temu, this app Google Play tries to spam you with? Why?
Because Google Play spams you with it, I guess.
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?

Out of everything the most depressing is Klarna. It's a buy now pay later microloans that should just be forbidden.
I don't know if it was the case in other countries but in Belgium a very popular app used to store loyalty cards was bought by Klarna. It was not really clear that you could continue to use the old app for a while and not switch to Klarna. So I know a lot of people that just installed the app just to be able to have access to their cards.

Goddamn right Crimea is part of Ukraine.
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, ..."
TIL Bulgaria is the best country in Europe
pretty sure this is bullshit. have seen some other maps on there too. unconvincing stats with no sources.
Wtf is klarna?
Is Temu really that much cheaper compared to Aliexpress to be "worth it"?
Same garbage different name
They have better marketing
