This right here. I am in a LDR with my partner and we only use discord to talk. I have tried moving us to another platform but she doesn't understand the big deal.

i wish my situation was that understandable, for me the other side is mostly just "I have nothing to hide, why should I care and upend everything because of it??" and the fact there is no real viable alternative that gives you even most of the stuff that discord does.

A good argument I have here is that you also decide for everyone else that they don't have anything to hide
