That's the difference between people who give in and people who don't. This is not about "opsec", it's about exercising your fundamental right to privacy. Majority of people are reckless, the ones who take a second to think about it are not
I agree with you, but the trade off is real for most people. It's unfortunately a binary choice: 'privacy ⊕ social community', instead of 'privacy & social' community.
It's interesting how opensource Zulip[1] hasn't been able to garner as much of a following or usage amongst the gamer crowd compared to Discord.
These two apps are not comparable. My guess is that 90%+ of people using Discord are doing so for the low-latency voice conversations with optional screen/game sharing.
Zulip does not have first-party voice chat. You would be more likely to get gamers to switch to a Teamspeak server.
but why can't the same person use both? i like discord since it has better group chat features that my groups use, but i also use signal for privacy with some of those group members.
it's not like people have to "don't give in" all the time...
