I use Discord to talk to my parents, since I live on the opposite side of the globe from them, but the second it asks me to scan my face will be the last second I ever use it...

Does it? Great, thanks! I'll have to install it remotely on their machine next time we talk and see if it's easy enough for them to get a hang of.

Good luck!
