This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well life is all about what morals you decide to follow, I've evidently chosen the one where I'm handing over a small amount of privacy to be less of a pain in the ass to the people around me.
And the main reasons are:

  1. elder parents I need to take care of
  2. people won't listen to you if you are unreasonable with them

I don't see what these points have to do with WhatsApp and co? You can't take care of them if you don't install some shitty app they decided to use? And they won't listen to you if you don't use the same app? Age is no sign of competence. One should listen to the one more competent in discussed matter. No matter the age or whatever else attribute.

Besides...it's not really just "a small amount of privacy". You're on Lemmy, so I just assume you somehow know better.
