    Your OS doesn’t, put the messaging apps that your friends/family/coworkers use do.

    And no, you can’t convince them to switch messager, I tried.

      You don’t have to say everything on those apps, tho, just do basic stuff and for longer convos request an encrypted chat app.

      I, at least, managed to get most of my family to switch. I told them it was the only way they’d get pictures and updates of my son. The one small victory I’m satisfied with.

      Have you used the gambling addiction and honeypot comparisons?

      Or opium smoking in China one?

      If somebody makes a functioning NOSTR client similar to Telegram in experience - maybe that will be convenient enough.
