This is what people like Stallman refuse to understand and it’s so frustrating trying to explain this to his fanatic supporters. Much of his die hard beliefs I think just reek of white male privilege and not caring enough to try and understand the lived experiences of other people and see why they sometimes rely on necessary evils.
The fact is, Discord is privacy nightmare but it’s resulted in the improved mental health of a lot of people by allowing them to communicate with each other in such a convenient way.
Stallman’s views honestly annoy me because he’s like a guy telling his friend to stop taking medicine because they have side effects, without realizing that the person’s mental health could plummet without their imperfect but effective drug.
edit: Downvotes but not a single person who can justify their disagreement with words. Imagine that.
