Nah, we do text. Kinda country dependent actually. In the US, asking for insta or snap instead of phone number is fairly common. But text is also common.
In many countries (mainly south america, south asia, and SEA), whatsapp is most common, and that uses phone number as well.
East Asian countries each have their own thing that not many ppl elsewhere use.

They also did at my uni, but it was for group servers for classes, clubs, etc.
It’s not really the first medium of communication when you meet someone.
