i live in Ukraine and I don't know anyone who uses sms.
also Whatsapp is not prevalent here either, basically everyone is using Telegram (or in case of older population, viber, which is installed on like 90% of devices)

are there any countries in which sms is still used?

Yes, North America between Android and iPhone.

I use RCS with everyone except iPhone users, which defaults to SMS.
