  • I have the same mentality and approach as well, and have legitimately lost friends because of this.

    One of the excuses as to why they “don’t have the time” to keep in contact is apparently because I’m “impossible to contact with no Facebook or Insta or Snapchat”, even though they all had my phone number and even my primary personal email, and a Signal account.



  • I’ve had this exact response from “normie” people I’ve known over the years multiple times.

    My guess is that it stems from the old saying “you get what you pay for”, and as such a free service without a megacorp behind it MUST be dodgy and untrustworthy.

    What annoys me the most is that when you bring up the topic of privacy it’s always the exact same response, “yeah well I have nothing to hide so it’s fine”
