I hate Gen Z
Dude. I have a group that only talks on Facebook Messenger. It’s 100% Gen X and Millennials. Don’t blame the generation, it just makes you sound like an old man yelling “get off my lawn”.
Exactly. What’s annoying are oblivious people, who are the majority in every single generation.

I’m assuming that they are also Gen Z, with the whole college roommates thing.
Dude, I agree that everything is fucked up there but don’t blame Gen Z for that. The only reason zoomers are like that, IN THE US, is that they grew up with a large lobby of social media above them and their fathers. “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing"
Generation war is a very stupid thing that was created precisely to keep us from those responsible for the current state of affairs: the big companies. It is true that most zoomers are stupid, but this is not their fault and it does not have to be that way forever.

Just remember: it’s ok to be the weird guy that doesn’t use instagram and isn’t in the group chat.
I fail to see any reason for hating a chat app so passionately except possibly for privacy concerns, which is definitely not the case here.
“sent from my iphone”
Such signatures are so annoying. Who in the history ever read this and thought “yeah, you know what I’ll get an iPhone for email”? Stupid preset.
Probably some people, back when smartphones were novel in 2007.
At this point though, it’s tacky and implies that you don’t care enough about the conversation to turn it off.
as a gen zer myself I would follow it up with WHY? give me a reason WHY. I don’t really see a difference between instagram groups and signal groups. I think what it is for most people is some lame app they will download for only that specific purpose. The only reason why iMessage is popular is it’s the default. If the EU passed a regulation to force Apple to have a default messager that only supported SMS, and iMessage to be a separate appstore app, or even just an extension for the messages app. it would die within a year. Meta groups are only popular cause they are tired to 2 of the biggest social platform being facebook and instagram.
hey don’t put that on gen z, dumbasses come in all ages (although mostly boomers)
Who the fuck uses instagram for group chats?
zoomers
I loathe the way kids use snapchat to text chat. They take a photo of their shoes then reply. 🤨
Sorry, I had to quit Instagram. How about just a normal group text?
If this an engineering school the future is in deeper doodoo than I even imagined.
“I use Signal to hide my data from the US government and big tech”
“Wait, you seriously still use Reddit? Everyone switched to the Fediverse!”
“Wow, can’t believe you use Apple! Android is so much better.”
No one who isn’t terminally online understands what these statements mean. If you want people to use something else, don’t make it about privacy and choose something with fancy buttons and cool features that looks close enough to what they have. They do not care about privacy and are literally of the mindset “if I have nothing to hide I have nothing to fear”. They sleep well at night.
And that’s why the world is rapidly going to hell. Everyone is under attack and almost no one is willing to so much as lift a finger in resistance.
Thank you, sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy reading comments here lol
if I meet you and you ask for signal straight up either your a criminal or hella 🤓. we can move to signal after we know each other.
What are you talking about?
Holy shit! That’s the most depressing thing I read in a while. :(
The iPhone is just the cherry on top
