Can't seem to find the modded spotify that gives you paid features

Pretty much just want 320kbps streaming, ad free, and playback syncing between all my devices

Not if you're trying to meet new people at your zoomer college dorms

It's fine if this is a deal breaker for OP, they just shouldn't act like it's the generations fault lol

Because nobody uses Signal

Look, I'm literally a tankie and understand the merits of Signal. I use it myself for anything that needs e2e encryption like organizing protests

But asking everybody else to download and use an app for just a single gc when all of their other chats are on other apps (that everybody else also already has) is far too demanding. Especially people you've just met and are trying to befriend

Not only that, but college roommate gc do not need e2e encryption unless you want to run a trap house. There's absolutely no positive of using Signal for this other than your own personal preference. It's just a little too self serving. Downloading Insta is free and you don't have to participate in Insta bullshit. I think even a Messenger account works since Meta implemented cross platform chats

Now if they were asking for an iMessage gc and you have an Android then that's fine to complain about because iPhones aren't free and you'd have to replace your current choice of phone too

The only thing I can think of that's worse than an insta gc is a signal gc

The arguments presented are so terrible and devoid of any meaninful substance

The first one was "China lol"

Then the one I replied to in support of "China lol" said "autocratic state" which is absolutely false unless all of your knowledge about China's governance system comes from reading CNN headlines and skimming Reuters articles written by a dude with a bachelor's in journalism that doesn't speak Chinese

They also said "well known to" which implies it's a special case when every state exerts overwhelming control and censorship over the media that occurs within their country
