Microblog post: "Family won't move our group chat to signal. Had to leave. Here comes the guilt trip ๐Ÿ˜’". Screenshot of a iMessage conversation with a contact named Mom: "Please come back to the group chat. We are making thanksgiving plans and we need your input." - "As I said in the group chat, you shouldn't be using iMessage. Signal is better Opsec. Once everyone starts taking that seriously you know where to find me." - "Gam Gam is 92. She barely knows how to use the phone she has." - "She needs to adapt"

No...

No.

I'm tired of being consistently correct and it taking other people a decade to figure that out.

Fuck you, you do it my way or not at all.

I'm an introvert, I'll be fine without you.

    Also conceding ground just gives the powers of evil what they want. If more than one person in the group chat got insistent then that would be a lot more leverage. If the majority decide it was time to move the move has already happened and the ones who haven't moved are the ones who are being obnoxious and sticking to a different app

    Everything is horrible and awful, but trying to hold my own friends and family accountable for their own actions?

    Well that's just rude, unreasonable!

    ... It's genuinely comical how hypocritical, how turbolib coded it is, to offer any defense whatsoever for a person to continue engaging in a harmful practice when the alternative already exists and works and takes maybe 90 seconds to switch over to, at literally no monetary cost.

    Everyone is wrong and dumb, except the people in my immediate proximity, they're just misunderstood!

    Fucking spare me.
