    It took my until this year to finally disable my Facebook account - my Instagram has been disabled for a while. If it stays disabled for at least six months, I’ll finally delete it.

    Why? It’s very hard to convince friends from around the world to all switch platforms when there is no major draw and most people are NOT on the new platform.

    I don’t like Zoom or Teams, but there are cases in which you are forced to do so in order to interact remotely with certain customers or businesses.

    It took months and multiple people to convince one of my more tech savvy friends to switch to signal.

    Sure, I can make the switch. But is it worth the hassle?
